Gorgeous Complex Rock/Minerals Containing Microscopic Fossils
InfoHungryMom posted a topic in Rocks & Minerals
I was looking for specimens with barnacle plates and rediscovered many UNBELIEVABLY GORGEOUS rocks/minerals/microscopic fossils - an iPhone does not do this justice. “Inside lighting” makes it appear blue/green. When viewed outside, it is fabulous purples, greens... this “rock” is quintessential Israel. No matter what your religion is or isn’t- there is a spiritual feeling gained just from being there. This rock represents the best of that to me- ancient, diverse, mutualistic symbiosis,...- 6 replies

I found these “two styles” of what I believe are unusually fossilized bones on the beach in Tel Aviv. Rather than ask for your input on them individually, I am looking for an idea of “the process” that occurred, and then will ask about what they are (please feel free to answer both at once....). The items on the left are a very pale tan. The ones on the right are the ones that have me totally baffled. They are more of a light gray. Thank you!

This ENTIRE ROCK is a fossilized “something”.... part of an animal? I hope the pictures show all of the unusual features, etc.

In Israel, fossils like these are newbies! I believe the rocks are “Jerusalem Stone”. Typical response from Israelis after I was excited about finding AMAZING BEACH BLING & FOSSILS.... “You found a bug or a flower inside of a rock or its imprint on a rock? Great.... go find more and clean up the beach!” It is an awesome experience for everyone- any background- any religion- even no religion!

Fossilized Shells or Just Another Pretty Face? Part One...
InfoHungryMom posted a topic in Fossil ID
This was a shell I was certain was ancient... maybe older than me (I'm a "mid-century"- in housing, we're very popular these days!) Lots of worm activity, but WTF is this?! (Was that rated G or PG-13? OMG! TOTALLY?!)- 6 replies
