[QUOTE="Syndyne, post: 674715, member: 378"] G'day Suskya, That's a relatively easy overall ident on that piece. It's a largish piece of plant stem material and is fairly common out here as far as opalised fossil material goes. I have several pieces like that myself, ones I've dug and found over the years, though nothing of that size, mostly smaller bits and pieces. As far as the actual plant identification, fern or tree etc. you would have to get in contact with a Paleontologist (like Phil Bell mentioned above) that works in the Cretaceous Era. Hope that helps. Kindest regards, Shauno. [/QUOTE]
