Septarian Nodules are a type of concretion that forms around decomposing marine life (typically shells). In Utah, they formed during the upper Cretaceous period when the Gulf of Mexico covered much of North America. They are composed of gray limestone, brown Aragonite or Siderite, and yellow Calcite.
