Wikipedia states:
"Tufa is the name for an unusual geological form of calcite rock.
"Tufa is a rough, thick, rock-like calcium carbonate deposit that forms by precipitation from bodies of water with a high dissolved calcium content. Tufa is not to be confused with tuff which is volcanic."
I know of no igneous rock here; everything is sedimentary. But I guess it could be tufa.

Gene,
Could it be volcanic tufa?
