Shamalama Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Cooll finds Gery. Is the wood mineralized or just carbonized? I like the clam that looks like it has been turned into a septarian nodule. -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers. When a roadcut presents itself, they tend to lurch and weave. To them, the roadcut is a portal, a fragment of a regional story, a proscenium arch that leads their imaginations into the earth and through the surrounding terrain. - John McPheeIf I'm going to drive safely, I can't do geology. - John McPheeCheck out my Blog for more fossils I've found: http://viewsofthemahantango.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranha Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 strange tracks All the other fossils are great but this massive assemblage of Thalassinoides burrows is simply spectacular! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nala Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 Just carbonized Dave,Thanks Scott,what i can say about the tracks is that it's not Thalassinoides but made during a very long time by the water(don't ask me how) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranha Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Thanks Scott,what i can say about the tracks is that it's not Thalassinoides but made during a very long time by the water(don't ask me how) Sorry to disagree Gery, but the manner in which those structures are intersecting are textbook features for Thalassinoides: LINK The water erosion has simply revealed their presence.

Auspex Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Yes: "bioturbation" is a general term for infaunal burrows.
