. Please help identify this croc fossil .
caldigger replied to Brammer's topic in Member Collections
Judging from the matrix, it looks a lot like the Moroccan pieces we typically see. Hopefully one of the other members that deal in that category will pipe in with further information. You will likely be asked for some closer up pictures of all sides. Was this purchased? If so, the dealer had no information on it?- 2 replies

conglomerate rock with fossils?
FranzBernhard replied to Ramona's topic in General Fossil Discussion
@Ramona, its a difficult decision based on this one pic alone. As already mentioned, it could be (poorly made) concrete, or it could be a natural breccia of some sort. It would be necessary to examine a fresh break in detail. Considering fossils, I can not see any in your pic. However, (some of) the clasts could be fossiliferous. More detailed examination necessary also here. Here is an example of a natural breccia with a fossiliferous clast: Franz Bernhard -

Brammer replied to sixgill pete's topic in Fossil ID
I need help identifying this fossil . I think it might be a Gavialosuchus. If so how old could this fossil -
Here's a couple crinoid rectangle castings from my place, this is why this was my first thought but you can see the rounded interior. You're right the rock isn't loaded with fossils. My thumb is on a brachiopod that was cut in half when the rock broke and there is a small trilobite rear end near that. You can also see the cross sections of a few shells on the side with the squares but that's about it. The big rock that came off of weighs about a ton and unfortunately it's the same thing, only fossils are really just on the top.

Thanks so much Don!

As Jamie Lynn posted above.^ I have a couple of hash rocks with such squares and rectangles. They're always surrounded by other crinoid bits. I have better examples than the one below, but haven't got photos handy. On the other hand, your rock isn't fossiliferous. Plus yours do look much more "mineral" than mine below. So there's that.

hello from Wyoming. The first one is definitely a mosasaur vert. Not sure about the second.

Actually Wallyworld would be a less expensive choice if you want that sort of thing. I get my Plano 19 compartment tackle/ lure boxes through them for $1.88. I doubt you would get them from Micheal's for that kind of pocket change.

I'll suggest the shark tooth is a Carcharodon hastalis (formerly Isurus hastalis). The others are possibly pieces of burrows, so trace fossils rather than body fossils. Don

Thanks! I also thought it was some sort of bone
-
Lots of construction "leftovers" got/ get thrown into river basins. Out of sight, out of mind.
-
Possibly worn cross sections of bone. As in your past topic, these are too worn to say anything more without further prep.

You can find many understanding members here; some have experienced similar circumstances. You are also wise to be circumspect with regard to over-sharing on a public forum. Still, the privacy of our messaging system and supportive friends have helped me through some tough times.
