Petoskey Stone
     This interesting stone is a variety of    Calcite. It was formed by the  fossilization of ancient coral,    Hexagonaria. The coral lived in shallow  waters and today's fossil often    includes ancient silt and mud. Petoskey  Stones are found on many    beaches of Lake Michigan and Lake Huron, as  well as in rock quarries    from Travers City to Alpena. The honeycomb  patterned stone has a    hardness from 4 to 5 and is the official Michigan  State Stone.
