Looking good @Kane! Solid finds man! Looks like you hit the jackpot! What kinds are these?

Hey! These are Pseudogygites latimarginatus, a fairly common Ordovician trilobite. Ottawa was where I grew up, and so my childhood was filled with finding these critters, pyritized nautiloids, and graptolites. The Ottawa area has a fairly rich and diverse Ordovician faunal array. I was fairly spoiled growing up!

That's  an ugly unintersting plate you're holding there .

The less I know about it,the better.

Please don't post anything on that piece

@doushantuo Magic word? Wasn't that the safety word, a la shades of grey? :D
