New member needs some help PLEASE

[badgernboo]

I have two of these, and I have no idea what they are.
could anyone identify them please? I'm not sure if they are rock, crystal or fossil. As you can see from the pics. one is a greenish brown, and the other a brown (two pics of that one). Both are heavy like a rock would be, but they give impression that if I was rough with them they would break. greenish one is aprox 10 in. long. brownish one 6 in?
Thanks in advance, appreciate any help at all

They look like some type of ocean barnacles or the likes. Did you find these by the beach? It would help if you gave us some more information about how/where, etc. you obtained them.

Neat find

The only gypsum flower I'm familiar with is the Desert Rose and since that was
round it was completely throwing me. Thank you so much !!!!

Good eye!

I now see a bag marked Fluorite.

I found a few of them in NM. always called em a desert rose, since they were usually pink colored

Why not post it on the rocks and gems forum here? I bet you'll get a decisive answer there! Yakker
