Here's a few pics of my study. Most are Northeast Texas personal finds. The huge chest is also full of fossils and artifacts. @RJB

Went for a short hunt at the NSR today, with only a few finds - it's been a minute since there's been a good rain, and it seemed well-picked-over where I was looking. I found a few pieces of bone, including a couple of either finger bones or very small vertebrae. I also found a piece of flint with potential microflaking. Perhaps the best find is a potential large scraper tool. Bones in situ: I think this could be a scraper based on its general shape, material (chert), and the nature of the flaking - which only appears on one edge: Though, I am certainly not familiar with artifacts, so I welcome more experienced eyes.

I took a trip to the NSR in early February and here are my finds. All of the bones in picture 2 as well as the closeups, I'm assuming mosasaur, were found on the surface but all with in about 10 yards of each other. They were on the other side of the river from the large cliff face so they wouldn't have fallen out of the matrix from it. It was a remote large creek area so could have just been revealed from the ground slowly over time and no one found them until I came across it. The bones themselves were also different from other mosasaur im used to finding. They had a reddish tent to them and they had a rougher texture, almost a little sandstoneish. Maybe the fossilization process at this spot was a little different than the normal NSR fossilization. Im interested in pictures 3-5, is it a fossil or geological? Im also interested in pictures 6 and 7, coprolite? I know pictures 8-10 are geological but I thought they were pretty cool whatever they are. The rest are closeups of the bones. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

I took a trip to nsr after some decent rain in the middle of January. Here in Texas the weather can be hot, cold, or anything in between and it turned out it was a nice day in the 60s. I found a decent mosasaur vert, some decent ammonites, and a few other items. Let me know what you think. Pictures 4 and 5 where of a huge ammonite. You can tell by the rock pick it was over a foot wide and the picture doesn't show but the outer shell that was deteriorating was iridescent and really pretty. I don't think I have seen an ammonite with actual shell still intact however everything else was pretty much eroded. I also provided some in situ shots of the verts. Also pictures 28 and 29 are of a really worn piece of bone that had one side covered in matrix or was possibly fused with another type of rock? Anyone know what items: 8 and 9, 10 and 11 are? Also I haven't done any research yet but it appears there are several different types of ammonites I found. Picture 27 are those burrows? If so any idea what creature made them? Lastly item 6 and 7 appear to be cow teeth. I'm assuming they are modern? 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32

I had a great half day at the North Sulphur River Texas before the rain got me. I found a mix of everything to include artifacts, Xiphactinus vert, swordfish tooth, coprolite, turtle shell, partially rooted mosasaur tooth, killer mosasaur paddle bone, Enchodus jaws, shark teeth and old toys. My buddy racked up on mosasaur verts.
