JustPlainPetrified Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Found this piece in the shale bed along the Little Smoky River in Northern Alberta a few years ago. It looks like a seed pod because of the sharp points all around its length, but could it be coprolite? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Rotated, cropped, and brightened. Looks a bit like a weathered conifer cone, to me. 1 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Mark Kmiecik Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I would expect a more defined pattern in a cone. Is there a hole at one of the ends? Could you please show us photos of the ends and the back side. 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...
