Todd0270 Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 (edited) This was collected in the Schoharie Creek bed approx. 5 minutes downstream from the Gilboa fossil forest in Schoharie County NY. The fossil was originally encased in limestone, I used 50% solution of Muriatic acid and water for preparation. I tried to look up some information but couldn't find anything exact, any help would be appreciated.

Shamalama Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 It's a Coral from the Favosites genus. Very common in the Devonian period which is the age of the rocks you were collecting in. That is a nice Silicified specimen for sure! 4 -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...
