The Behrendt Collection - some fine fossils, prepped by Marc
(Just for looking, not for selling)
| Specimen: |
Carpoid - Castericystis vali |
| Location: |
House Range,
Utah |
| Period: |
Cambrian |
The carpoid layer in the Marjum shale is just that, a
layer. If the collector splits the rock too high or too low, the
specimens may be missed. Yet if the exact carpoid layer is exactly
split, the specimens often disintigrate! It takes a bit of
luck to get a true museum class specimen! |
