Cool. I have a few fragments of this and that, one of my foibles. I have a piece of hardened clay a few inches across that I popped into my pocket while filming at the business end of a 5 metre diameter tunnel being dug by a large machine 15 metres under the main runway at Heathrow. At that depth, I was told, the surrounding material was ex- swamp and hadn't been uncovered for 60 million years. I also have a smaller piece of stone from a wall that was part of the ancient Roman Portus at Fiumicino - used to be the trading centre for ships coming into the hub of the Empire. About 25 years ago I went down a coal mine and had a small souvenir of coal that lived on the mantelpiece at o0ur last house for years. Apparently it fell off one day and someone thought it had dropped from the coal bucket, so it was flung onto the fire!
