New Members keagenschuppener Posted June 5 New Members Share Posted June 5 I found this weird rock/fossil from a quarry in Wisconsin. Anyone know what it is? It’s about 2.25 in tall and 2.25 in across, 1.25 in wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I respectfully disagree. I'm not seeing the sectioning you would see in crinoid pinnules. This looks like some sort of banding in the chert. Cropped and contrasted.

DPS Ammonite Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 We need clearer photos. It sort of looks like a coiled ammoniod with meandering worm tubes or trace fossils. 1 1 My goal is to leave no stone or fossil unturned.
