FOSSIL UPLOAD
First, make sure you have a myFOSSIL account, this is required to upload your fossil information. If you are interested in seeing if your fossil can be used for research purposes, please follow through the following steps. They walk you through the information needed and why it is helpful for other scientists to use it for research questions. Even if the information you have on your fossil is not enough to be used for research purposes it will still benefit the community through educational means and help others identify their fossils. Specimens that have sufficient information will be uploaded to iDigBio and GBIF (Global Biodiversity Information Facility) for public accessibility.
If you have already gone through the stepwise process that explains each piece of data please click through to a summary tab where you can enter in your specimen data on a single page.
Data Quality Information Page
It certainly could be, though given the fragmentary nature I cannot confirm it is not chert!
I got it from a petrified tree log and it broke off like tree bark and it contains wood and has a wooden texture. Also chert is made out of quartz which has a hardness of 7 which means if I was able to break it off means ist definitely not chert. Also it has the same colouration and texture as petrified wood.
