    Evening Ivan

    Does this link help at all - http://www.uniclectica.com/conserva/ivory1.html

    Those oval growth rings look like a good defining feature?

    Also bone has pits - stick it under your leica and eliminate by looking for haversian pits - small pores.

    http://www.asianartmall.com/refivory.htm This has good info too with pics.

    cheers
    Stephen
