Jack County, TX
 

Today I explored a couple areas in Jack County, Texas.  Nothing very exciting was found but I did find some broken but mostly complete examples of Heliospongia sponges.
Location 1
Crinoid bits
 
This location just northeast of location 1 is either in the Colony Creek Shale or the Thrifty-Graham Fm. 
Location 2
Crinoid bits
Trace fossil
Location 3.  This location in the Placid Shale produced nice examples of Heliospongia sponges.  A week later on 2 Feb 2020 I went back to collect more.
Location 3
Sponges as collected
Sponges reconstructed
