I purchased a nice Redlichia Mansuyi trilobite a while ago. Most of the matrix still feels solid and hard however some of it (which feels kind of like clay to me) seems to have dried and is flaking off. Do I need to be worried? Would it be necessary to consolidate the fossil with paraloid or something similar?

Large Yongshunensis, Rough Prep or Partially Faked?
Kurufossils posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
I will be receiving soon what looks to be a large youngshunensis trilobite, while I am aware of fakes from china I'm not sure if specimens of this trilobite like this just have real rough prep work done to them or if maybe there is some sort of carving involved. Any knowledgeable feedback to whether its a keeper or not will be greatly appreciated, always wanted to nab one of these.
