    Hi Bill,

    I know both Jorge and Austin, and I agree with their comments. It seems you’ve found some fossil whale bone, but unfortunately it also seems to be pretty heavily weathered. I cannot confirm which bone(s) you have or the species.

    Cetaceans are known from the Towsley Formation. A skull was described in a paper by Barnes in 1977, “Outline…[Read more]

    My best guess is that you found some echinoid (sea urchin) impressions in a chert nodule.

      Thanks Bill! I actually posted this tooth a while ago, but I was checking something on the upload process and forgot to delete this one.

    Hi Lab group–I am in another meeting tomorrow that conflicts with our lab time. I will therefore not be able to hold class on Monday, 19 October, so it is cancelled for this week. All the best, Bruce

    Hi Amber, I’m still confident that this isn’t bone. If you are interested in searching for fossils, this may be a fun place to check out https://www.canr.msu.edu/news/ancient_fossils_bring_coastal_tourism_opportunities_to_life_in_michigan

    Hi Amber, this does have an odd shape, but it is not a fossil. It’s likely either sandstone or ironstone that has been weathered into this peculiar shape by water flowing through it. Bone has a very distinctive porosity, which this lacks. I hope this helps!

    Hi Kelly, this looks like an impression of a fossil plant called a lycopod. Could you add another photo with a scale? @mackenzie-smith should be able to confirm.
