Ludwigia Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 I'm not at all sure that this is bone, particularly since the photos don't show much detail. Where and how did you find it? Do you know the stratigraphy? Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludwigia Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Hmmm. I'm rather stumped on this one. Maybe @mamlambo could recognize what this is. By the way, things cannot be "covered with concretion", since a concretion is the name for a type of stone. Greetings from the Lake of Constance.

We will need some clearer photos, in sunlight if you can @Mister Wu I have found bryozoan there which can look like bone, but cannot see enough in the photos. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamlambo Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 This is some suspected bryozoan that it reminded me of, from the same location. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludwigia Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Mamlambo asked for photos. Moving objects are difficult to analyse. Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamlambo Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 @Mister Wu the video doesn't load for me. Can you upload some photos? Also, how did you prep the fossil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Wu Posted July 8, 2023 Author Share Posted July 8, 2023 I prep it using Dremel hops the photos are detailed enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamlambo Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 Thanks for the additional photos, to me it looks like the bryozoan I've found on that beach rather than bone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I zoom in the photo and take a screenshot it has very tiny holes. Edited July 9, 2023 by Mister Wu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamlambo Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 I don't know enough about fossil bryozoan and coral to say for sure if it is one of those, I don't think it is bone though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
