silentsinger Posted March 30, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Not sure if its the right place to post this, but seemed it was the most fitting. Well, i was at the beach yesterday, just talking a long walk, and i found an odd looking rock. Of course i brought it home with me, and now i am wondering what it could be? Anyone has a clue of what it could be? Was found in Husodde in Denmark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nighthawk9653 Posted March 30, 2014 #3 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Maybe it's part of a clay plate or cup or something. You should take it to a museum or somewhere to see if it actually is old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silentsinger Posted March 30, 2014 Author #5 Share Posted March 30, 2014 (edited) errr a rock Yeah, a rock, but if you can't see anything in the rock, then you might need some glasses Maybe it's part of a clay plate or cup or something. You should take it to a museum or somewhere to see if it actually is old. Thanks, i might just do that. A stone with a fossil in it Well i was hoping someone had seen something similar, and could give me an suggestion. Then maybe i could search online, and try to find out more. Just searching for fossil in rock, wont help me too much Edited March 30, 2014 by silentsinger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whisperer Posted March 30, 2014 #7 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Looks like a fossilized sea plant similar to the ones used for making jewellery, corral.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oniomancer Posted March 31, 2014 #8 Share Posted March 31, 2014 The white looks like the cortex one sees on flint nodules from the region. Whether it's a fossil or concretion within that nodule is the question. If you're Danish, you might want to try here: http://www.fugleognatur.dk/forum/show_data.asp?ForumID=46 Although wouldn't you know it, it's down right now. I've I had to guess, I'd say some kind of colony animal like coral of bryozoans. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A rather obscure Bassoon Posted April 1, 2014 #9 Share Posted April 1, 2014 What sort of rock is it ? If it's sedimentary then it could be a fossil,but if it's igneous then it won't be a fossil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imaginarynumber1 Posted April 1, 2014 #10 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Looks more like painted clay than a rock in the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandpa Greenman Posted April 1, 2014 #11 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I know what it is. It is fossilized coral, I see a lot of it on the beach. I got some in my collection. Here is a site pictures of it. http://skywalker.cochise.edu/wellerr/fossil/coral/coralL.htm 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PersonFromPorlock Posted April 1, 2014 #12 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I was thinking of a mudstone that formed around a clam and took an impression of the shell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BNDGK Posted April 7, 2014 #14 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Looks also kind of it might be a trace fossil of some sorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
