This is a nice fossilized Trilobite in host rock from Morocco.  Trilobites are the most diverse group of extinct animals preserved in the fossil record. Nine orders of trilobite are recognized, into which 15,000+ species are placed. Trilobites are remarkable, hard-shelled, segmented creatures that existed over 300 million years ago in the Earth's ancient seas. They went extinct before dinosaurs even came into existence, and are one of the key signature creatures of the Paleozoic Era, the first era to exhibit a proliferation of the complex life-forms that established the foundation of life as it is today. Although dinosaurs are the most well-known fossil life forms, trilobites are also a favorite among those familiar with Paleontology (the study of the development of life on Earth), and are found in the rocks of all continents.

The Trilobite itself measures 12x14 mm, the entire host rock is 58x53 mm.  This specimen is great as a teaching tool in the home or in the classroom, or as a gift.   It can also be used for science projects and other types craft displays.  Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card. 

An olivine volcanic bomb is a type of volcanic rock that contains olivine crystals and has been ejected during a volcanic eruption. Olivine is a mineral that is commonly found in the Earth's mantle and is one of the first minerals to crystallize as magma cools.

Volcanic bombs are large clots of lava that are ejected from a volcano during an explosive eruption. They can vary in size, and their shapes are often streamlined due to their molten nature as they are thrown through the air. When these volcanic bombs contain olivine crystals, they are referred to as olivine volcanic bombs.

This piece has been cut to showcase the beautiful green olivine crystals.  It would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.  Stand is not included.

This is a nice end cut of the Northwest Africa 978 meteorite. This is another of the great and rare meteorites from the Sahara. It is classified as a Stone, Chondrite Rumurutiite, (R3.8). This meteorite was found in 2001 in many fragments and small individuals, very fresh but sandblasted for a low TKW of 722 grams. The Shock stage is registered at 3 and the Weathering grade at 2.

It is one of the rarest meteorite types with only 9 Rumuruti 3.8 type meteorites known,  most being found in Antarctica. This unique group of chondrites has basically no FeNi-metal in comparison to other chondrite groups. The R chondrites also have the highest 17O value of any other solar system material. This piece weighs 3.03 grams an measures  20x14x6mm. Note the flat edge of this piece is crusted, it is not a cut surface.

This hard to acquire piece displays very well with its diamond lap finish and this high quality specimen would make an amazing addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen cards.

When these volcanic lava rocks contain olivine crystals, they are referred to as olivine volcanic bombs.

Mount Shadwell, a dormant volcano, was formed 25,000 years ago and is believed to have last erupted about 5,000 years ago. The town of Mortlake, which is situated at the foot of the volcano, is the self-proclaimed olivine capital of Australia.  This is where large ejected rocks from Mt Shadwell, called volcanic bombs, are found.

This piece has been cut to show the green olivine crystals which are showcased beautifully against the surrounding black lava crust.
