Mistake or...
What kind of rock is it in? Could it have been dropped by someone a long time ago, and then some form of natural concrete hardened around it? It might not be a forgery, it could have just been misidentified by Creationists who don't know much about geology to begin with.
I think that this is the most likely case here.
What I would be interesting in understanding better is whether this is a matter of incompetence or dishonesty.
The finding should be subject to very careful analysis. (It should, of course, had it's providence carefully recorded too - that is lost through carelessness now).
It would seem that this has almost certainly not been done. Perhaps because those with it don't understand what is necessary to get a better answer. The other explanation is that they know perfectly well what they have (or rather don't have) and don't want it carefully analyzed.

Reading the paper
Not in this case Crash. There is some suspicion of dishonesty (something these folks know something about). There is need to maintain a "audit trail" of the whole process by parties from both sides. This is not a typical lab analysis.
