3D Cordania Trilobite - Scarce Species

This is an nicely preserved, and very 3D specimen of a pretty rare trilobite out of the Haragan Formation, Cordania falcata. It's been nicely prepared under microscope using air abrasives. This was the only specimen of Cordania available from the Black Cat Mountain quarry this past year (2015)

Black Cat Mountain produces a limited number of arguably the most beautiful trilobites in the United States each year. Each specimen is meticulously prepared by Bob Carroll under microscope to expose the smallest details. This is a very time consuming process taking many hours but yields spectacular results.
