JIMMFinsman Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Could use a little help with these. Thanks!!! Found on the beach in Delaware where we find many shark teeth, shell impressions, fossilized shells, bones etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fin Lover Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Welcome to the forum. The first one doesn't look like a tooth to me. Someone else will have to respond on the second item. 1 Fin Lover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 The old Delaware shuffle. Same answer as last time. The second one in the mix just might be a fragment of bone. I'm not confident of it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JIMMFinsman Posted April 20 Author Share Posted April 20 Thanks! I was thinking rock after I saw some similar ones noted as "cementitious material". The larger one I'm also not sure of but would be cool if it was a bone fragment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandy Cole Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 I agree that the larger one isn't bone, but it does have some interesting mineral shapes in it. I can see why you're interested in it, particularly the darker banding. Maybe karst or schist? One of our members more knowledgeable in geology may be able to help more.
