N.Mckenzie Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 (edited) I've been trying half heartedly to get an ID on this for a while now, stoked I've stumbled on this forum! This is from the golden Bay cement works quarry in Nelson, NZ. Found in same area as many bivalves, sharks teeth, corals and snails.

Al Dente Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 It’s an incomplete bivalve steinkern. Sediment partially filled a bivalve and lithified, then the shell dissolved away. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manticocerasman Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I agree, half of a bivalve steinkern 1 growing old is mandatory but growing up is optional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
