Favosites niagarensis Coral Fossil


My cousin Kenny sent me some images of something he had been working on recently. He extracted a silica coral fossil from a boulder using muratic acid. What emerged was a Favosites niagarensis coral with other corals or stromatoporoids. The fossil was found the Silurian Period Louisville Limestone of Jefferson County Kentucky USA.
