Fossiljones Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Hello Forum Friends, I've got two recent finds, found during a dive trip to the Cooper river, that I'd like to I.D.. The first is very tiny, 5 ~ 6 mm on the long edge, with an unusual pattern (it's difficult to photograph something so small). The 2nd item, I believe may be a whale tooth frag. it's pretty worn, and split. The inner structure is visible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 First piece is a fish tooth plate. I agree with the second being a fragment of a whale tooth. 3 Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys."

Maybe @Boesse can say more about the whale tooth. (Or correct Me.) Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys." Will Rogers said: " Some of them didn't spring far enough."

Boesse Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Some kind of largish cetacean - more than likely a fragment of a sperm whale tooth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
