Description: This specimen of Struveaspis bignoni is found associated with another trilobite that we have been unable to identify due to its small size. The rock in this quarry is extremely hard due to its high silica content, which makes the Jorf trilobites particularly valuable. Because of the sediment in the area, they fossilize in this characteristic color. The trilobite was expertly sandblasted. It is well-preserved, 100% natural, and free of alterations or paint.
