Bone or tooth? From what?
#fossil #method
just a rock from what l can tell.
@bill-heim, @matthew-gramling, @a-trilobite are some people that could help determine. For now though I’m jumping on the “very bone-looking rock” train.
It has the vauge shape of a bone, but it has no definition or detail. It is flat, not round, there are no bone marrow holes, and has hints of iron on it (the orange colored parts). I’m going to say that it’s a rock worn to have a vauge bone resemblance.
Thank @daniel-park ! Greetings @james-rose! This is quite the spectacular pseudofossil, but sadly only that. It’s probably weathered ferruginous sandstone that very deceptively looks like a humerus. Not a fossil, but perhaps worth adding to your rock collection
