Malcolmt Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Love the chart wish there was one for areas that I collect. Amazing a single slab has fragments from 8 different trilo species. I think most I have is 4 on one matrix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caleb Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Thanks for the plate caleb. That cephalopod texture is wild. I beleive the genus is Cyrtoceras, it's not very often that we find them with the shell intact. Love the chart wish there was one for areas that I collect. Amazing a single slab has fragments from 8 different trilo species. I think most I have is 4 on one matrix. That chart was very useful when we started collecting the Platteville Fm. and I wish more papers had them. I had thought there were 7 different ones and was amazed by that. While studying the piece for this post I found the Hypodicranotus hypostome partially hidden under a piece of shell which bumped it up to 8!

I would need many large dump trucks to fill with plates from these sites to be satisfied.

Kosmoceras Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 These are nice! I must admit I don't have many, but I have one half decent one. I'll get a pic tomorrow. I sadly have no idea on the location of this one, found it in the garden as a paving slab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharkbyte Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I am guessing this would qualify as a Hash-Plate. It is a "Gob" of Belemnite from the Black Hills of South Dakota. I did not personally find it but I like it a lot. 1 "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." - Confucius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudeman Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Nice Hash everyone! Here are a few of my best Hash pieces (or as I call them "creek rocks", since this is where I find them). I assume this is all Ordovician in age, Platteville or Galena group in formation. (just a guess) 1.) has a brachiopod, with some wierd stuff on the backside. Not sure if this is the shell worn off, exposing the interior? or what? 2.) cool piece with lots going on. Troy Nelson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
