Kane Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Welcome to the Forum. Coral would be the fossil here. Colonial/tabulate type. There were a lot of coral reef builders in our side of the continent. 1 ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at it a bit closer, I'm doubtful about it being coral at all. The sections are not of a uniform size, so perhaps something non-biological in origin? ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what it is, but leaning towards an agate. It would help to determine what it is if You could post better pictures. Please set the rock on a solid colored background in direct sunlight. When You hold the rock and the camera it increases movement and blurs the picture. Also, include a scale for size and pictures from all six sides.

fifbrindacier Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 I firstly thought it could be a coral, but i saw it had irregular patterns, so now i also think it is mineral.

If the photo is larger, you'll need to resize it below 3.95 mb by cropping, online resizing services, or using whatever graphic editing software you may have on your computer. If you are getting the max limit message even when supplying another image that is below that size, try refreshing your browser. 1 ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
