Also this is technically a rock since it is made of multiple minerals - calcite, aragonite, and then the host rock which is a calcareous mudstone IIRC.

Haha I figured but wanted to point it out just in case. I hope I didn't come off as too much of an "um, actually" jerk! Cool pic btw!

You did not, don't apologize for adding information. 😊 I actually love that you pointed out that it's a rock. A lot of people don't know the distinction, and now anyone who read your comment can be technically correct, the best kind of correct!
