yes it is rounded out from being under the water it also has fossils from coral.
A "petoskey" stone was originally an fossiliferous (with a coral fossil), organic (sedimentary) limestone. The original limestone has been glaciated and pieces of the fossiliferous limestone containing the corals have been plucked form their bedrock matrix and rounded into pebbles as they have been carried along by ice. When the ice melted these pebbles have been dropped into whatever was below them. This means a petroskey stone is a clast in a "new", modern clastic rock. However the stones themselves are not originally from a clastic rock, they are sedimentary in origin.
Currently, Petoskey has not been found outside of Michigan.
Stone is a common synonym for rock and therefore may be igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary.
You reversed it.The lithosphere contains rock: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic.The prefix litho- means rock or stone. This prefix is also used in the word lithography, which is a type of printing using stone printing plates.
No, a limestone is a sedimentary rock. There are three types of rocks: sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous. That's the simple answer for the complex distinctions between the types of rocks.
The Petoskey stone.
because the gem-isle was cute to them and they chose that rock

From the state stone...the Petoskey Stone. (I guess)
The pattern on a petoskey stone is a hexagon.
Limestone is a sedimentary.
Im 99.9% sure its a sedimentary rock
Petoskey Stone is a type of coral and is fond in Northern Peninsula of Michigan
sandstone is a sedimentary rock because of the layers or lines you can see on it
Currently, Petoskey has not been found outside of Michigan.
Lime stone is a sedimentary rock formed by the skeleton remains of ancient minute sea creatures.
Yes
