Danielb Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 (edited) Hi this came from the Laramie fm if Marshall Colorado. It is dense and light and sticks to your tongue I have heard of people finding up there please correct me if I’m wrong. I also thought maybe petrified wood but to light and sticks to your tongue. I am exited to hear what you all think. Thanks -Daniel Edited August 24 by Danielb Link to post Share on other sites

Not everyone is always on the Forum. Have you conducted a burn test, to rule out modern bone? Link to post Share on other sites

It sticks to my toungue but I was also confused with why it looks like wood. Sorry for my patience Edited August 24 by Danielb Link to post Share on other sites
jpc Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 The tongue sticking thing is based on porosity of the specimen, not its boneitude. Wood like this should stick quite nicely. Laramie fm does have a lot bones in it. Keep looking 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Brandy Cole Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Any petrified wood in that formation? That's my vote. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
