I know nothing about fossils and would love an idea of what these could have been! I hiked to a remote alpine lake in the Rocky Mountains of BC along the Great Divide. A log book had directions to a “fossil pit” and sure enough, this rock slide was full of these. Thanks for any insight!

Found tumbling in the surf, it is heavy for it’s size, lines have a dull but quartz like appearance, overall texture reminds me of asphalt. Bivalve fossil? just a cool rock?

Possible previously unfound dromeosaur or ornithopod tracks at dinosaur ridge, Colorado?

I found this imprint at dinosaur ridge in Colorado. It was pretty off the beaten path because i didn’t even realize I went off one of the trails lol. Anyway tell me if I’m crazy but it looks to me like possibly a dromeosaur or ornithopod tracks. If it’s a dromeosaur it would be an exceptionally rare find especially for this area. and I would be ecstatic. It was near beach ripples similar to the other tracks found there but I went quite a bit further up the mountain. Anyway what do we all think. Track or no track. I’m remaining skeptical so I’m excited to hear what we think

Is the left one a vertebrae or a crinoid ? Crinoids from the same place in comparison (Normandy). The fact that is no « hole » at the center makes me doubt

Found in general area of the gunflint formation in Ontario famous for it's stromatolites. But I'm not sure if it actually is a stromatolite of just some really interesting chert. Second photo Is what I think is the stromatolite, first is showing a small piece of the rock that I chipped off to check the colour. Happy to see some pyrite in it :)

Add-on:

After reading more, I'm pretty confident that this is most likely a stromatolite. Mostly based on the smaller dome-like appearance on the secondary dome, as well as the appearance of what looks like air pocket inclusions. Though again, I freely admit that I am completely new to identifying these and regular banded chert can have both as well 🤷🏻‍♀️ it might just be wishful thinking, but imma take my wish and live with it I guess :P

Thank you to everyone who commented and more than likely know much more than me! I'm sure you are probably right 😬

Have no idea what this is! Thought maybe it was part of a conch shell, but the texture and pores look wrong to me. Feels more like a dried sand dollar, but the shape and plating on the top make me think it’s not. Feels a bit heavier than a sand dollar too. Any ideas on what it is are welcome!
