please help me to know what i found is a fossil or not?

First I apologist if my English grammar has problems because I'm not native.

I found a fossil which looks very much like a fish fossil.

I want to make sure if this is a real fossil of a fish or not.

It might be a fossil that even had the meat become the fossil.

Hello, and welcome to the Forum.

I think you have a broken concretion there, rather than a fossil.

Keep looking.

Regards,

I ..love the last image. I've never seen a picture augmented to fit a piece that's in question to if it's a fossil or not. I commend you on your active imagination. However, I will say it's not a fish fossil nor do I think it's a fossil of any type. Your find appears to be some type of sedimentary rock with traces of iron, hence the iron oxide(rust). Probably a concretion.

 

Best regards,

Sure looks like a concretion...they both do, really. I don't see anything that suggests a fish fossil.

Indeed, those both look like concretions. Concretions do sometimes contain fossils on the inside though. Sometimes pieces of fossil can be seen poking out. And sometimes concretions have to be split open to see if there's anything inside.

On your piece I do not see any evidence on the outside that suggests there is a fossil inside.

I did not understand the few words that were spoken in the video, so I don't know what these men said about the stone. Are you one of the men? I could also not see the pictures taken by the scan well enough to judge properly. There appeared to be something in there, but what? Was that the stone that you are showing us here? Even if your stone comes from the same site, it does not necessarily mean that there is a fish in it.

When beginners first start looking for fossils, they often are picturing a creature in toto in their mind (they see a whole, fleshed out creature), and when they are looking at the rocks, they want to image-match some rock to that mental image. So people end up looking for arms, legs, heads, whole fish, and other parts of animals. That is why they end up with these pseudo-fossils that resemble whole creatures and walk right past real fossils. To find some real fossils requires a recalibration of this mental image, and then you can start potting fossils at a glance, and from a long distance.

So... become familiar with fossils found in your area, and "calibrate" your eyes.

All beginners have this problem that I mention.
