Samuel1029 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I found this fossil in Guantanamo, Bay, Cuba. It was in the wall of a road cutout. I’ve looked online and been unable to find any as large. If anyone can tell me more information about it, that would be great. The hinges are intact and working. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plantguy Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Nice find! That's one of the spiny/thorny oysters called Spondylus...not sure which species nor the geologic formation down there..Maybe someone else can add that...You do find alot of them with both valves still attached/and working hinges up here in Florida as well...kind of fun that way! cool!

Mark Kmiecik Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Now that is cool and I learned something new! Nice find. Mark. Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
