SandraZet Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Hi, my 5year old son found this in Chile, near Cochamo in a riverbed and the more I look at it I wonder how a stone got this texture. Maybe you can help us understand how this happened. It is about 13inches long and very heavy. Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Kmiecik Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 It is similar to a geological type of rock known as boxwork. 3 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...
trilobites_are_awesome Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Looks like a weathered rock to me. 2 Cheers! James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
