Superb, unbroken slab filled with wonderful naturally occurring orthoceras fossils that was once part of the prehistoric ocean floor over 400 million years ago.
As these forms of prehistoric squid were covered in ocean sediments prior to fossilization, the majority of the creatures will be facing in the same relative position, having been lined up by currents on the sea floor prior to being buried.
The fossils are exposed and given a high polish to better view the creatures from their surrounding matrix. The slab features very high relief as well as dramatic texture and detail they had tentacles and ink sacs, much like present-day squid.
Except for belemnites, cephalopods had external shells with hollow internal chambers separated by walls called septa.

When opalized can be also called as Ammolite is an opal-like organic gemstone found in various placed in the North America and Madagascar. Ammolite is made of the fossilized shells of ammonites, which in turn are composed primarily of aragonite. The microstructure of the mineral is inherited from the shell.
It is one of few biogenic gemstones. Other more commonly known biogenic gemstones include amber and pearl. Ammolite was officially recognised as gemstone species in 1981. Ammolite “opalization” is a term used to express the similarity between the two minerals due to the spectrum of colours it displays. Usually red and green, whilst, blue or purple are rare due to the latter's fragility.
