Fossildude19 Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Where was this found? Is Alness in Scotland? Any other fossils found with it? More pictures of the other sides/top/bottom might help. Right now, it looks like a geologic oddity - spall, or conchoidal fracture from a larger rock. 2 1 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 IPFOTM -- MAY - 2024 _________________________________________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Mark Kmiecik Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 It looks like a concoidal fracture to me. These are created when cliffs collapse or rocks are broken into smaller ones by other means. I'm not 100% sure, but I'm 85% or better. 3 1 Mark. Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I agree with a fracture pattern. It looks like one called a hackle fringe. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
