An unknown item from Etobicoke Creek (Upper Ordovician) and a shiny item

[Monica]

Hello once again!

 

Upon closer examination of some items I recently collected from Etobicoke Creek in Mississauga, Ontario (Georgian Bay Formation, Upper Ordovician), I have found a couple of items I'd like your thoughts on.

 

Item #1:  Found on the same rock as a monoplacophoran (Cyrtolites ornatus), the unknown item is tucked underneath some matrix:

Item #2: There is something shiny on a rock and I'm wondering if it's the living chamber of an orthoconic nautiloid (likely Treptoceras crebriseptum).

 

View of the opposite side of the rock - contains crinoid stems:

 

View of the side of the rock with the shiny part - I've boxed the shiny part in red (you can also see some sparkly pyrite in the upper right corner of the rock):

 

Close-ups of the shiny part - a rock flaked off of this area, showing some additional prettiness underneath:

 

Thanks for your help!

The shiny part is pyritized, I think. It reminds me of a pyritized wood I found few months ago, it was shiny like the part of your rock above. 

 

 

I do not know what fossil item #1 and 2 is, sorry!
