Galactic StoneProboscidean (Mammoth) tusk section for #FossilFriday and #FieldPhotoFriday.
I was digging through a layer of #Pleistocene sandy overburden to reach a fossiliferous #Miocene strata, when my trowel hit something hard. It turned out to be the largest section of mammoth/mastodon tusk I have ever found. It measures approx. 2m long. Later analysis of the Schreger Lines in the tusk confirmed it was Mammoth.
Location : Peace River, #Florida, Bone Valley Formation.
