msdljack Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Second fossil hunt along a creek bed in Sunol. Fig 1 and 2: Some bone maybe ? Fig 3 ~ 6: Some prints. Maybe just a normal rock ? There are few more finds. Not posted yet. Cheers, Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlo Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I'm not sure but I think I see what could be gastropod in the first two photos.I'm pretty sure that the last four photos contain pieces of bone. Do you know the age of the deposits? Is it a tertiary marine area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nandomas Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 (edited) 3 to 6 yes, they are bones in the concrection, whales, maybe? :) Edited December 27, 2014 by Nandomas Erosion... will be my epitaph! http://www.paleonature.org/ https://fossilnews.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJB Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 First 2 photos, not a clue, the last three photos look very much like the whale bone in rock I used to find in capitola and around the Eureka area. RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
