A Ball Of Lives?

[Jiuwei]

Attached are photos taken of a stone sphere (~ 50mm in diameter) I recently bought from a local store. The vendor told me that it was made of a mineral from Western Australia. In fact, the features in the sphere are quite mysterious. Is it a ball of a frozen scene of lives that were crowded and were busy in reproducing in a time in the past?

It looks like the cross section of a high-spired snail similar to Turritella.

It looks like a cut and polished ball with a Turritella as the biggest piece and a bunch of other types and species of mollusks.

Edit: i was beaten to the draw

Agree with the above, like pic #4, looks like teeth ready to take a bite, awesome-----Tom

I agree with the above. Gastropods cut through at various angles showing the spiral chambers.

"Ta" says that Turritella.
