Found several of these on a beach in Grand Marais, MN on Lake Superior. The light colored part is a bit rougher feeling and the red/maroon knobs or nodules are quite hard and smooth and raised. I can’t find anything on them…someone mentioned in another forum possibly Rapakivi Granite or Granite Mica Schist but I think they seem a bit different than the images I saw of those. The largest one has a few tiny pockets of crystals. Thoughts?

Hi all, a friend of a friend found this on the most northern point of Lake Superior, off Copper Harbor. I suspect it is fossil but to my eye it just strikes me as modern. Maybe escaped aquarium coral. But this person also claims to have found other pieces of corals there. Might anyone be able to say if this agrees with fossil corals of that area or is it a taxon not to be expected from the Paleozoic? Thanks!

I found these three fossils I’m pretty sure one of them is a coral but the other two I have no idea. Thanks in advance! Found in Grand Marais MI.

I found these rocks between Ashland, Wisconsin and Little Girls Point in Michigan. There was so much rock hunting that day, I lost track of exactly where! Picture 2 (the tan colored) that's posted in the comments, is a coral fossil on the back. Shown is the front, I've never seen something like that before. Please share your knowledge, it's greatly appreciated!

I found these rocks at Black River Harbor and Little Girl's Point in Michigan a few days ago. It's driving me crazy not knowing what they are! Any insights would be greatly appreciated!
