I found this a while ago. I believe it is a geode and a fossil. Within the rib, there is crystal the looks quartz to me and at the top of the stone, looks like there may be bone. I would appreciate any and all thoughts

I believe you have a fossil cronoid. A lot of fossils contain crystalline crystals from the process of fossilization.

There are mineral fossils as well ,here is a dissolved unknown mineral,likely limestone with a tiny quartz stringer,softer minerals dissolve leaving the tougher quartz behind View attachment 1561429 0309180854.jpg
