Though very worn it looks like you may have a rib. There looks to be other pieces of bone surrounding your find. Awesome.
-
Really? I never would have imagined. There are some other, I guess rib bones, near this one. Could it be relatively recent or is there no way of knowing by a photo?
-
I believe those are proper fossils. If you touch these fossils they will probably feel cold. Even though they are stone, you are able to see the texture of the bone. It would be difficult to collect the fossil in “one” piece. Maybe a jacket of plaster of Paris could keep it together. I would like to advise leaving it in situ is you are not well…[Read more]

I’m going to leave them as is. I don’t have experience removing anything from the ground that isn’t just laying around. There is a new neighborhood on the way and I am afraid things like this will be lost. Can or should I notify anyone?

I believe you are right. They are beautiful specimens. I think you should compare your specimens with pictures of rugose and tabulate coral fossils on Google images. You are going to find most of your answers there.

Photo 1, Looks like some nautiloid and possibly a Turritella. 2.Lovely piece of branching coral. 3. Turritella, a possible bivalve on the right. 4. Perhaps compare to Bryozoans. This is a very tightly packed fossil. 5. Compare to pictures of branching bryozoans. A really grand collection.
Would love to go fossil exploring with you Lynette-luff, I would learn so much! Thank you
I am jealous of your fossil search places. I live in South Africa. Owing to a back problem I can’t walk that far anymore. I’m a teacher and taught at a school which had fossils. I then had Dinocamps for close on 30 years at least once per term. It was great fun and my South African kiddies enjoyed learning about our local fossils. I enjoy…[Read more]
I find myself very lucky, Portugal is marvelous for fossil exploration!
Been twice at the Cape Province, and all I can say is that South Africa is a beautiful Country, nature wise. I believe theres a few limits for owning fossils, which is that…
