1. First one is a Spirifer i think, but dont know which kind, sorry forgot something for scale size, its a little under 3/4 inch.

2. Some type of shell

3. Some type of shell

4. Another type of shell

5. ( pictures 5-6-7) A conglomerate with alot of different types of material, ive tried taking like 20 pictures but couldnt get better detail. 2 things i think that weird the most i have marked in last picture, but if i could get better detail you would see. but i cant so had to draw as best i could. top marked area looks almost like scaled lzard skin, and its folded also going 90 degrees not all flat. the bottom circle marked is really detailled and has a bunch of lines almost fingerprint like.

6. (pictures 8-9-10-11) A cavity in the rock with spongy like material, both big pieces were conected together but broke in half, pictures 10-11 show a little piece that was connected and broke off, but shows some detail.

7. I believe crinoid, but never seen this type pictured?

8. Is this crinoid?

1. Possibly Mucrospirifer mucronatus brachiopod.

2. Tropidoleptus carinatus brachiopod.

3. Tropidoleptus carinatus internal casts.

Tropidoleptus carinatus Imprints

5. "Lizard skin" is actually a bryozoan. "Fingerprint pattern" is an imprint of a crinoid columnal. 

6. Bryozoan.

7. Imprint of a crinoid columnal.

8. Pyritized  internal cast of an orthocone cephalopod. 

 

For your Mahantango (Deer Lake) Formation fossils,  this PDF  might be able to help ID your finds. ;)
