Another maybe fossil

Yet another flowerbed find, though not as clear as the one I found yesterday.  I swear I have other rocks like this one in my rock collection box.  To me, those white spots may or may not be fossils, but are at least somewhat interesting.  According to a palaeontologist I spoke with regarding my rugose fossil, the rocks in my flowerbed are either mined limestone from Canmore (I'm placing my bets on this as they were installed for landscaping), river rocks from the Bow River or it's tributaries, or glacier erratic rocks.  Hopefully this helps.  Thanks!

I like Trilo-butts and I cannot lie.

Need more views.

Also, scale for this is approx. 1.5 cm.  For the other one, that's pretty much the only view I can think of (as in that is the whole exposed fossil), but I can certainly provide a more zoomed in image.

No clue how to crop images on mobile, sorry.

Could just be calcium carbonate concretions.
