It looks like one to me from what we can see. Blue ridge is interesting as it's an ancient coral type that is essentially extinct... except for this particular species. Nice specimen.
 
It's hard to tell from the picture. Another possibility might be a fire coral (which really isn't a coral).

if you look at

>this picture</a>, take a look at the bottom right. It's a rust colored coral in front of a monti cap.

It has hairs instead of polyps and will sting you if you touch it (like a bee sting).
