That is an odd one, if it was undisturbed soil, whatever it was had to be real old, maybe it was fossilized ? In NYC when that sort of thing happens, it becomes an indefinite work stoppage.
I've never seen anything like that when I did that kind of work. I do remember finding rubble from the local quarry, that we used on culvert aprons, that had fossils in it, wish I saved one of those, might even still be there where we put that culvert in.
