2.2" Cretaceous Fossil Long Bone In Rock - Morocco

This is a 2.2" long fossil long bone from phosphate deposits, Khouribga, Morocco. This could be a paddle bone from a Mosasaur, however it's difficult to accurately identify on its own.

It comes from the phosphate deposits in the Oulad Abdoun Basin of Morocco. These deposits are mined for phosphate, one of Moroccos biggest exports. The fossils are collected as a byproduct of the mining operations, saving them from certain destruction by the rock crusher.

Comes with an acrylic stand.
