Hello! Please help me find out if the arched bands showing up after polishing this metamorphic rock are just random artifacts of sedimentation or an indication for petrified wood? The material reacts to vinegar. I picked the stone in Romania, Harghita county. Thank you!

Greetings, My lying eyes are struggling with the unlikely chance that the forms in this rock are biological in origin. This looks like coral to me: I see rough impressions of corallites, polyp anatomy, septa, hexagonal and circular chambers, and signs of stacked chambers where masses are sheared perpendicular to the exterior surfaces. The average diameter of the corallite-like openings is ~.5 cm. Many are smaller. Some are up to 2 cm. Note the manner in which various tilted tubes erode to reveal their lengths and interiors; and the presence of angle-cornered walls that group fiel
