New Members Danzka Posted April 2, 2020 New Members Share Posted April 2, 2020 (edited) Hey everybody, as a newbie i'm a bit excited :-)... So i hope i'll can give you all the informations which are relevant. The object was found 3 days ago in the Stoltera nature reserve (54.176962, 12.005744). It stucked out from the cliff which was formed from glacial deposits. It is 8,5 cm/3,15 inch long, has a diameter of 2,3 cm/0,9 inch and weighs 92 grams. What could that be? Location Top 1 Top 2 Bottom Side view Thanks in advance for your answer! - Daniel Edited April 2, 2020 by Danzka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westcoast Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 This looks like a shrimp burrow like Ophiomorpha. Could tbe cliff be a raised beach? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johannes Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 This is the trace fossil Ophiomorpha nodosa in an ironoxide (limonite) cemented sandstone. Regarding the location: most probably a glacial erratic (Geschiebe) from Palaeogene. And regarding the location: Stolteraa Cliff runs from W Warnemuende up to Geinitzort. You are round about 350m westward of the end of the Stolteraa Cliff on your picture. Quaternary geology is much more simple at the site of your picture than in the Stolteraa section. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
