jikohr Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Hi everyone! A buddy of mine recently bought this as an "unknown fossil" and sent me some pics to see if I could ID it. My ID is that it's a rock and not a fossil but I figured I'd post it here on his behalf in the desperate hope I'm wrong. Apparently it was found somewhere in East Texas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPrice Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 It has the appearance of an "amoeba " nodule of flint or chert. These are very common in Texas and elsewhere. I have purchased them from Texas for flint knapping projects. This one is from Eskdalemuir, Scotland. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can work with that! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
