    Texas fossils Conularia and Gastropod?

    These are a few from Texas, didn’t have a lot of info on them, one I identified as Conularia, But not sure about the Gastropod?

    Pareidolia

    Micro fossils seem to provide a lot of opportunities to experience pareidolia. I find the need to temper my excitement. Though, this gastropod fragment provided more laughs than excitement. My granddaughter will keep this one, after all she once had her own pet baby dragon.
  4. Wow is all I can say. I cannot believe what I have managed to find this week alone. I went to Texas for a vacation, and I’m coming out with some of my best fossils (in my opinion) I’ve found this year. I came here hoping to score some trace fossils of what once lived here, and score some, I did! Since there are two different time zones, and 4 different types of fossils found, I’ll split them up based on environment, and time. With marine fossils going first and tracks going second. Permian first, and Cretaceous second. I’ll do a picture of the whole haul and then we’ll get started. I also was able to capture some tracks that weren’t collectible so I collected them with my camera. Taking a fossil out of its place in a rock like that causes more damage than it does good, so all tracks were already eroded out and separated from anything scientific. Anyways, here’s the stuff: Permian Marine Fossils: Permian Footprint: while collecting today, I was hoping for a Permian footprint. Literally as I was about to leave, I found it! There was also another footprint attached to the rock but it fell off and scattered along the debris of similar colored rock. I wasn’t finding that anytime soon! But anyways, here it is. You can see a few sets of claw marks from the amphibian that once walked across it. I’m really happy I found this on a small rock and not one that I would have had to leave behind. cretaceous marine fossils: I also found a nice crab claw but it was so embedded into the rock that I just took a picture of it. Some things are better left to be appreciated by other people! cretaceous footprints: I found a bunch of footprints embedded into the rock, I of course didn’t attempt to take these out of their rightful place and I left them to be admired by others. I found one eroded out of the rock, and broken and incomplete, but it’s a footprint none the less. I’m pretty happy about all I found in general. It’s hard to see but the first two toes are there, and the only reason I’m confident this is a footprint is due to the fact that there were others around. All around a great trip and I still have more to find because I haven’t left yet!
  5. In 2013 I was visiting around Buffalo and went to a creek that had been recommended. I didn't come across any trilobites but did find other exciting things. Among them were quite a few pyrite nodules I dug out of the creek bank. Must have found 30 of them. All rounded but varied shapes. About the size of a quarter or a little bigger. I have learned that many people have found them. Some close-ups. Many have a hole in them (shown above) and you can just barely see something inside the hole. Early on I broke some of these open and found... ...pyrite fossils. Gastropod, brachiopod, clam, ammonite. I quit there, I didn't want to smash them all. Over the years, as many who have found these know, some of the nodules began to decompose. What some refer to as "pyrite disease" or "pyrite rot". I have had a number that have broken apart and then turned to dust within a few years. I quarantine those that show signs but haven't had to in the last year or so. I have stored most of my nodules by simply putting them in a sealed container with a desiccant packet, with only a few problems after 7 years. But some ...the first 4 pictures of the post... I keep in a Pyrite display case and they have never shown any signs of problems. And the mini fossils have also never shown signs of decomposition, either. And they are on display as well, not packed away with a desiccant. So...some from the same "batch" decompose while others don't. Why??
