New Members SusanLB Posted July 7 New Members Share Posted July 7 Hello. Does this look like it’s a fossil? I’m waiting to hear of the location from the person that found it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 I don't think so. It seems to be geologic with no biogenic origin. 1 1 1 ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockwood Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Interesting. I've seen a few like it in glacial outwash back in Maine. Are they perhaps tectonically deformed bubbles? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TqB Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 (edited) I think this is probably a bit of stone that's been in the modern sea. The small holes look like Polydora ciliata (worm) borings which often have a characteristic "sunglasses" shape, and the large ones are probably piddock (bivalve) borings.

debivort Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Do you have any other photos? If there's bilateral symmetry perhaps between the two larger holes, it might be a fossil. We need more views. That said, I too suspect geologic origin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can ask the person I am helping. This rock is from Denmark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info. I’ll pass it on to the owner of the rock.☺️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
