12.7" Mosasaur (Eremiasaurus?) Jaw with Eight Teeth - Morocco
This is a 12.7" fossil jaw section of a mosasaur from the Phosphate Deposits near Khouribga, Morocco. The jaw contains eight complete teeth still attached to the jaw. There are almost a dozen mosasaurs described from these deposits, but based on the teeth it appears to be from the species, Eremiasaurus heterodontus.
The teeth are natural and have not been composited into the jaw. There has been some repair and stabilization work to both the teeth and the jaw with minimal gap fill restoration.
It comes with an acrylic display stand.

It comes from the massive phosphate deposits in the Oulad Abdoun Basin near Khouribga, Morocco. These deposits are mined for phosphate, one of Morocco's biggest exports. The fossils are collected as a byproduct of the mining operations, saving them from certain destruction by the rock crusher.
