Pictures are a bit blurry, but if the holes on the surface (visible in the second and third image) are 'boreholes', it could be a bivalve, something along the Rastellum line, I think.

Doesn't look like Calamities, more like a bivalve.  But it doesn't have the characteristic zig-zag pattern of Rastellum or similar species, so I'm not sure what it could be. The line down the middle looks almost like the stem of a fern.  Sharper photos might help.
