New Members Wawrow Posted Monday at 08:26 PM New Members Share Posted Monday at 08:26 PM I love pseudofossils that look somewhat realistic and plausible, here are some that I'll be interpreting in a fake "paper" I'm writing to practice my scientific writing skills. They're probably just some iron stains but these are still some "imaginary segments" that could be distinguished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Rico Posted Monday at 08:42 PM Share Posted Monday at 08:42 PM (edited) That's interesting I think. Like this Dendritic crystal on Limestone. Looks like some kind of plant material. Edited Tuesday at 08:25 PM by Bobby Rico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FranzBernhard Posted Tuesday at 05:03 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 05:03 AM (edited) I am going to suggest to write an exercise paper about mineral stains, centered on the piece you presented. If you really want writing serious papers, I see no point describing a "fossil" that is simply not there. If you are into fantastic literature, fiction etc, go on as intended.

This will not translate from the Polish into English as elegantly and with rhyme, but it basically means creating fanciful things is the same as creating nothing.
