NSR Unknown 3-6-2020

Out for my normal weekend hunt. A lot of baculite and ammonite pieces around. Have two that I need help with. Both were found in the river just north of Ladonia Fossil Park. 

 

First one was found in 6 inches of water on a material pile.

I found three of the following. All three different colors. This is the darkest of them. Others were beige-grey and lighter grey. All had pieces of baculite and other material mixed in. All were around the same size.

The others look like concrete balls or some sort of breccia.

Bringing this back up. While walking the NSR today I was able to locate where this grey "blob" might of come from. Below is a few pictures of more of them. Around 30 of them in various sizes spread over 20 square yards or so. All have the same color and same type of baculite and other shell debris. Just curious if they might be worth digging out.

LOL that sounds really easy but they are in some hard matrix. Wanted to make sure I wasn't just spending the time digging some weird dripping concretion or poop.
