[QUOTE="Pat Hogen, post: 567551, member: 11720"] This is an answer from an associate that knows fossils better than most everyone - "I am not sure on this one. At first glance it appears to be manganese dendrites that have formed on a bedding plane. It also appears to be a weathered specimen???? If at all possible, can I have a closer photo of one area? There are fossil plants recorded around Kalgoorlie." So I will send him that closer pic that I see and report back to you. That staining does occur in a host of rocks that are leached by deposits of other chemicals and certainly does resemble dendritic ferns. [/QUOTE]
