Today's adventure is a spot I haven't been to in a while. I've heard that there have been a few fossil penguins found in this area and I really want to find one!
Let me know if you have any idea what the artifact could be
It turns into a great hunt with many different types of fossils from the Miocene to Pleistocene ages.
Thanks to everyone that has been sending me photos to use in the slide show, I love seeing all the finds!
Please email me pictures of your finds that you want featured to: mamlambo82@gmail.com
I also have a rockhounding channel which features agate and petrified wood hunting which you can find here: / @mamlamborocks

Very interesting as always. In the UK, symmetrical stone with a hole through the middle usually means either; spindle whorl (used to spin thread before the advent of spinning wheels) or a loom weight (kept tension in the cloth whilst being woven). In your case, that would have been one hell of a loom LOL!

Great finds buddy! That holey rock - my understanding is they are formed as the mud layers compress underwater, there are holes that form that release the pressure and transport minerals that cause concretion around the hole.

So interesting! You say the stone is thought to be a ” natural formation” , it still has a WOW feel ,as do all your finds 🤗

The donut rock could have been a curling 🥌 stone but makes no sense as no ice lol perhaps it had a constant drip on top and eventually worked through !

You have the eyes of a hawk my friend. Really impressive stuff picking up the colour, shape and detail. You have some real skills there fella. Respect from the Uk.
