5 years, 11 months ago5 years, 11 months agoThe metallic luster and highly magnetic properties of this sample suggests that it is either Magnetite, or that there are magneto fossils present within the matrix. The typical “Y” shape found within this sample, and many others, suggests it is a very early coral polyp.

5 years, 11 months ago5 years, 11 months agoThis unknown coral in mudstone is highly attracted to magnetic fields, and lacking the metallic luster of Magnetite, it likely contains magneto fossils. Based on the flattened and pointy tips, there is a good chance that this is a sea grass.

5 years, 11 months ago5 years, 11 months agoThis mudstone resembles Magnetite and is slightly attracted to magnetic fields, but lacking the luster of Magnetite, it is likely that magneto fossils are present in this marine sediment. Based on the few visible spike-like features present, and multiple “hollow heads” similar to early Hallucigenia interpretations, unless internal scans fail to…[Read more]

5 years, 12 months ago5 years, 12 months agoThe Rugosa or horn coral went extinct 252 mya. So, one way or another, missing fossil records don’t agree with reality. Either rugose died 250 mya and the turtle came before that and records are just hard to find; or we are missing millions upon millions of horn coral fossil records from millions and millions of years.

5 years, 12 months ago5 years, 12 months agoThis is the only record I cannot argue or defend with scientific reasoning. It is much larger than the Burgess phenotype, but at +/- 7 inches in length, it is too long to be a leaf. The morphology tells me it is a Pikaia, but without additional samples it remains a mystery. Using color-shift, I tried to isolate any external fragments, but the…[Read more]
