Rare Maorotarion Trilobite - Black Cat Mountain, Oklahoma
This is a rarely seen Maorotarion axitiosum trilobite from the Haragan Formation of Oklahoma. The tiny size of this trilobite is one of the reasons it's so infrequently found. Typically only a handful of these are found a digging season at the Black Cat Mountain Quarry. This specimen is .38" long and nicely prepared.
The Black Cat Mountain Quarry produces a limited number of arguably the most beautiful trilobites in the United States each year. Each specimen is meticulously prepared by quarry owner Bob Carroll under microscope to expose the smallest details. This is a very time consuming process, taking many hours, but yields spectacular results.
