crinoid1 Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 (edited) Hey guys! I spent the last few days collecting in the Bangor Limestone, and I brought home A LOT of rock. (probably WAY too much...) Here are some of my finds. Hope you enjoy! Gabe Camptocrinus alabamaensis: Hypsiclavus huntsvillensis? A ventral Edrioasteroid: (if anyone can ID this one for sure, let me know!) Phanocrinus bellulus: (Note the anal tube) Edited December 24, 2013 by crinoid1 I like crinoids......

Jurassic Jim Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Looks like a productive pre-Christmas outing. Terrific crinoids and I really like the cephalopod as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Gabe, Thanks for posting these awesome fossils! These are things that I haven't seen before, and therefore very interesting. Wonderful finds and pics. How do you cut the slabs out? Do you have a saw or angle grinder?

PFOOLEY Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Looks like hauling all that rock really paid off. Very interesting specimens.

crinoid1 Posted December 25, 2013 Author Share Posted December 25, 2013 Thanks for the compliments! Fossildude19: I cut the fossils using a regular circular saw with a diamond grinding blade. The rock cuts like butter and the saw doesn't struggle! -Gabe I like crinoids...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
