This to me is more like a bauxite specimen with a typical clay matrix. While a scale would help, the semi-sphereoids seem rather large, ecentric and. The matrix is too devoid of carbonate looking material. Oolites and Oolitic limestones are much more consistent in size, small:2-4 mm, and in cross section are less variable than in this photo.
