It might be coral. that was my second guess..most of my other finds are coral The best I can do with location is South East Saskatchewan close to the US border, Hunting in a large valley, Qu'appelle valley to be exact. Part of the Hudson Seaway when in covered most of North America Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
