tmaier Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 It's a sedimentary stone with three layers, Sandstone? The brown layer might have something in it, but it isn't obvious what it might be. the only way to know would be to expose some of those dark things and see if they are fossils or just random mineral deposits.
