Found in Ajax, Ontario. I see that there is a cephalopod shell in the corner of the same rock but this very square shape stumps me. Looks like nothing else I've seen from the ordovician period. Any idea?

Hi! I found this on Ostia Beach near Rome, Italy. It’s about 3 cm long. I think it might be a fossilized tooth, possibly from a shark, but I’m not sure. Could anyone help identify it? I’ve included several photos. Thanks!

Hi there. Yesterday I found this rock in Germany next to the Rhine river. The pattern in the first picture looks like the edge of a seashell to me. Do you think it could actually be a fossil (or whats left of it)?

For context, I found this is in a rock bed in a residential area. It’s maybe an inch and a half long. I’d love to know what it is! I have a similar rock I found again in a similar type of rock bed at a restaurant lol. Maybe I’ll post that one too. I tried getting every possible angle for a better ID. Thank you all!!!!

I've had this thing for a really long time and I'm getting rid of some stuff. I can't find any fossils online with the soft tissue so intact and I'm wondering if it's worth anything or just interesting!

Is this a fossil?

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 😬

From the Yachats Formation on the Oregon Coast. Second picture highlights the smaller fossil on the first. Found with clams, scallops, crinoids, forams.

Trying to wrap my head around these cross sections. The smaller fossil looks like it is sliced through the middle of columella. Successive whorls hide earlier ones. Seems unique. Shell to cavity ratio is large. Maybe it's not a gastropod? Or a weird one.

Found in Central Nevada in the shadow of a mountain range. It was in a tailings pile, but was surely washed down off of the mountain. Part of a hip, maybe?
