JamieLynn Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Hello all!! Was in Bell County and found this little bit - Fredericksburg Group Cretaceous. It seems to have an interesting structure. Apparently some "fishy bits' have been found in the area...is that what I have? Thanks! www.fossil-quest.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieLynn Posted May 27, 2019 Author Share Posted May 27, 2019 Tabulate corals are apparently Ordovician which is quite a bit earlier than Cretaceous. 1 www.fossil-quest.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPS Ammonite Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 It is a Paleozoic tabulate coral which is reworked, brought in from a distant formation via a river or brought in by a human. Similar corals have been found in the North Sulphur River. Is it silicified? Silicified fossils can be transported a long way from their source. 1 My goal is to leave no stone or fossil unturned.
