Rob Russell Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 The lower one looks like a poorly preserved cross section of a cephalopod, in my opinion. What’s the age of the formation?

Wouldn't this have to be the 'big foot' of the trilobite world ? The "imprint" at top center makes me think cephalopod in this context. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
