Ratsbaby Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Hello, I'm wondering what the fossils in this rock are. there is a large one surrounded by multiple small ones at different angles within the rock, and the fossils look very mushroom-like, although i may be wrong. The whole rock is around 2.3cm on its longest side, the largest fossil is about 1cm in diameter and the rest are all about 0.5cm or less. found in the gravel of a drive in Skegness, Lincolnshire so it may have come from elsewhere. hope to hear back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I would say a crinoid columnal. ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FossilNerd Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I agree with Kane. Looks like a crinoid columnal imprint to me.
