I decided to take a break from house work and the Hadrosaur pubis I'm working on, and prep my first trilobite. It comes from the Wheeler Shale. I'm pretty sure it's an Elrathia kinglii it's missing it's cheeks and some of its head. Here's how it started : And here is how it ended: All in all I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out. I used my Dremel to get close and then my blaster to take the rest of the matrix off. The only hiccup I had was right at the edge of the rock - some of the head blew off and was gone in the blink of an eye. After I was done I was looking at it under my scope, and lo and behold, there was another trilobite I'd totally missed near the cheek! It looks like a little 3mm agnostid trilobite. Luckily I didn't blow it off during prep. I have loads more bones and trilobites to just through, and look forward to showing you guys when I'm done.

From the album: Utah
Perenopsis multi-plate from U-Dig. @Kane an old timer to the site showed me were to find these and after a few hours I found a couple with 5+. I said I'd get you another one, but perhaps I could up the stakes for another E. rana. Stay tuned!- 8 comments
