Rockwood Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 I passed this by assuming it to be a cigarette butt. Later on @Lone Hunter handed it to me saying this looks like a cigarette butt. It was found loose in Bear Creek, likely Eagle Ford formation, in the Fort Worth area. Any idea what it is ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone Hunter Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 I think it's a piece of weathered bacculite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Are any sutures visible? It may just be a weathered phosphate nodule. 1 The human mind has the ability to believe anything is true. - JJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. That's why I broke it off and collected it. To check under a lens. The rod shape makes me think it is most likely a trace fossil. The lining of them is often distinct.
