possible coprolite

Recommended Posts

I know the odds are against me but this rock is odd  so wondering if it could be a worn coprolite?

I am not familiar with it so I just don't now...the weight feels off a bit and it is a bit tacky when wet but i just don't know how tacky it is supposed to be been wrong before.

 

pics are of it dry will post pics of wet next...........

Where in Texas was this found? 

 

You might consider joining a local fossil or rock club to get an idea of the types of things that can be found in your area. :)

Not a granite. I see clasts of red jasper. Probably a conglomerate or breccia that has been exposed to heat and silica rich fluids that oxidized the iron in the jasper.

My goal is to leave no stone or fossil unturned.
