CURT Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Years ago I purchased a large Fossil Pomegranate from a dealer who said it was from the Miocene of Nebraska. I don't have the specimen handy,or I would have posted a pic. Despite gobs of searching, I can't find anything like it anywhere. Has anyone come across such a thing, or was the data off? If I had to take a stab, I'd say it is a gypsum replacement, though I could be wrong. Thanks. Curt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest N.AL.hunter Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I am not going to say anything until I see a picture of it. If it is real, neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest solius symbiosus Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Pics please. For any fruit to be fossilize would be incredibly rare. They are terrestrial, made of soft tissue, and a delicacy to most critters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
