Dino Dad 81 Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 I like to play in similar dirt, but I’m useless for IDing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 Don't forget to put size on your post. Not sure if we are looking at something 1 inch to 10 inches. Those look like bone fragments. Not sure what that tooth looking object can be is it big or small? Does not look like a tooth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpc Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 Here is what I see.... the first is a small rounded chunkosaur. The second looks more plant-y. Can we see a view of the cross section? 3... I see a gar scale and something else things like No 4 are generally only identifiable after you prep them out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svcgoat Posted March 3, 2023 Author Share Posted March 3, 2023 I've cleaned up number 4 quite a bit. @jpc the large round piece is plant like or the small pointy piece? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troodon Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 #1 is nothing, Not sure on 2 Can't figure out what that item is in your larger piece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svcgoat Posted March 3, 2023 Author Share Posted March 3, 2023 2 reminds me of skull or ceramic like in that it's pretty uniform if I look closely it has little lines throughout however it is much smoother than dinobones I'm used to. Here's a closeup of the texture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 There are some pretty smooth Edmonto bones that fan out, that thickness in the pelvic area like a pubis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svcgoat Posted March 3, 2023 Author Share Posted March 3, 2023 @Troodon Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svcgoat Posted March 3, 2023 Author Share Posted March 3, 2023 I have another fanned out piece from a different location this one is Hell Creek while all the others were Lance. Could this also possibly be pubis related? Both sides shown below @Troodon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpc Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 The cross section photo is out of focus, but it looks like sandstone inside suggesting that the pattern is bone impressioon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svcgoat Posted March 4, 2023 Author Share Posted March 4, 2023 @jpc I'm worried to clean the sandstone out and damage the bone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpc Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 use a dental pick r reasonable facsimile and take the grains out one at a time until you hit internal bone texture. Or take a closer up photo In Focus of that edge... : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svcgoat Posted March 8, 2023 Author Share Posted March 8, 2023 Chipped away at #3 still unsure what it is The object in the matrix measures 22.1 mm @Troodon @jpc Any idea what it might be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svcgoat Posted March 8, 2023 Author Share Posted March 8, 2023 For all I know it's tumbled stone as the sediment came from wash material 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
