allquieton Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 Found near Canelo, AZ. The grey stone feels brittle, lightweight, and gritty. And there's tons of it around. I'm not sure if this is a fossil or not. Just thought it looked real curious. What do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 Looks like part of a crinoid stem. 1 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Mark Kmiecik Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 Yes, it's a fossil. Crinoid stem section. 1 Mark. Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allquieton Posted March 5, 2022 Author Share Posted March 5, 2022 Thanks for the replies. I had to google crinoids--very cool! Can I assume the other brown inclusions in the grey rock are also fossils of some kind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
