fossilzz Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 I found this in ordovician strata that is approximately 450 million years old. It looks like a shell fragment from a bivalve or brachiopod, but it has rounded edges. Any help would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Kmiecik Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 +1 brachiopod. 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...
fossilzz Posted September 13, 2019 Author Share Posted September 13, 2019 Ok thanks, that makes sense. I had just never seen a fragment with rounded edges like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
