I found this mineral deposit in a coral piece. It looks like pyrite but there is some green in this.

Here is a Devonian period coral call
Favosites turbinatus or "knee cap" coral. This knee cap coral might be the biggest one I have found. It is about 11 cm in diameter.

Here is a Devonian period horn coral with a budding daughter coral. It is probably a
Cystiphylloides sp.

Here are some fragments of snail molds. The snail more than like was the Devonian period
Turbinopsis shumardi.
