Golfer Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 Found on beach at lighthouse in Cape Elizabeth Maine. Black color. I think it looks like a piece of coal. Has a smooth area, rest of stone is rough. Lightweight 1 ounce. Has shiny elements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfer Posted June 6, 2023 Author Share Posted June 6, 2023 Doing some research may be black tourmaline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Kmiecik Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 It does look like coal to me. 2 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...
Ludwigia Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 Looks like coal to me too. It's much to lightweight to even think about turmaline. Just for fun I googled "Cape Elizabeth Maine Coal" and discovered that over half a century ago a freighter full of coal ran aground just off the cape. Greetings from the Lake of Constance.
