Lone Hunter Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Not a shark tooth, more details on location where it was found would be helpful for someone trying to ID it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 This looks purely geologic to me. Not a tooth, as there is no enamel present. 2 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

val horn Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 Can you post a clearer picture of the side that you showed on your foot. It seemed bone like but it was too fuzzy for me to see if that irregular surface was trabecular bone. My impression was a chuck of bone from a large animal but otherwise indeterminate .

Its interesting for sure. I zoomed in on that last picture. Yep a clearer photo might say more. I think this is non-fossil, non-sedimentary as the others have said. Might actually be a metamorphic rock example...not sure what the radiating weathered crystals are and I'm reaching for an answer but I'm wondering what the smaller darker/reddish/roundish/almost faceted? items are-- might even be garnet ? Need better closeup but it looks to be pretty weathered so may not help. .. Regards, Chris 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
