Description

Middle Cambrian
Burgess Shale, Stephens Formation
Field, British Columbia, Canada

Excellent injection-molded CAST of the famous US National Museum USNM 57683 specimen. 2.2 inch animal on 4.1 inch slab

Problematica, Burgess Shale.

Opabinia is a genus of primitive arthropod known only from the Burgess Shale so far.  It is also one of the rarer animals there.

Casts are affordable visual aids to fossil collectors, museum curators, and science teachers.  They are life-size copies of actual fossils which can complement fossil displays of all kinds.  This cast is especially nice even replicating the somewhat reflective quality of the actual fossil and the color of the actual matrix.
