-
Greetings @cameron-muskelly! This specimen was discovered just outside of LaFayette in Walker County. The matrix is either Upper Ordovician or Lower Silurian. My working hypothesis is “Chickamauga Limestone.”

4 years, 6 months ago4 years, 6 months agoIt is most likey Ordovician. There are outcrops of the Chickamauga Limestone in that region that is Ordovician in age. It’s a Horn coral from the Chickmauga Limestone. I would have to do a bit more searching to narrow it down to genus level.

@matthew-gramling tagged it as Chickamauga in LaFayette, GA. Hopefully that helps a little.

4 years, 6 months ago4 years, 6 months agoAsphelaspis brachyphasis are the names of the trilobites you have found. They are very common. So common they have their own zone. They were first know from rocks in Nevada. You are in the Middle Cambrian portion of the Conasauga Shale Formation which is ~497 million years old. This is the younger portion of that rock unit. The other portion is…[Read more]
