No guess really but doubt coral. Coral is usually uniform in growth...
My 1st thought was it resembled Kambaba jasper which is an agatized microcrystalline Quartz and Stromatolites

My 1st thought was it resembled Kambaba jasper which is an agatized microcrystalline Quartz and Stromatolites So I looked up the kambaba jasper and it looks surprisingly similar but from my googles searches and complete lack of actual knowledge it looked like this was found no where near the right location for that. When I googled stromatolites jasper I got very similar photos once again so I really think your on to something with your identification. Anything else I could do to try and confirm or narrow it down?
