Is it a fossil

Recommended Posts

Had a question of if anyone would know if piece below is a fossil or not? If is fossil, maybe what kind would be. A split had a rounded bump look and left an imprint on the other half (imprint half was hard to focus well with the different level of high). Its from Florissant. Wanted make sure so don't throw anything out that could be good but was hard tell if was even a fossil or not.

Someone who knows florisant should weigh in, but to my eye it could be geologic, like a small concretion still surrounded by matrix.

Small coprolites have this shape frequently.

 

 

Mark.

 

Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them!
