New Members wrexsoul Posted August 18 New Members Share Posted August 18 I found these while hiking in the desert of southern Utah near Escalante. It looks like either some kind of shellfish or some kind of seed/acorn. There was petrified wood in the vicinity if that helps. The diameter is about 27 millimeters and the height of the first one is around 20 millimeters. There were also a bunch of these half spheres rocks around which I think is related. My theory is that it's just the first picture broken in half. Any help is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 The second item looks like half of a concretion or nodule. First one could be a gastropod mold, but I have a feeling it is geological in nature as well.

Mark Kmiecik Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 I think they are geological as well. Maybe someone who is familiar with the area will respond. 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...
