Offered here is a
n ultra rare and undescribed Edrioasteroid
from the Martin-Marietta Cloverdale quarry from the St. Louis Limestone Formation of Cloverdale, Indiana, Mississippian in age. Th
is rare echinoderm
measures
1 1/2
” wide and has excellent detail. It’s
fossilized on its side.
It sits on a matrix piece that measures
4 1/4
” x 4”. The
edrioasteroid
is fully complete
. I sent pictures to Colin Sumrall and he had a couple genus categories, but had no clue as to the species.
This beautiful piece was found 2 years ago at the quarry. The quarry has a no collecting policy, but I’m lucky enough to know one of the quarry employees that got permission to allow me to collect on non-working weekends. The ledge where these were blasted and found has long been crushed for white rock. If you have purchased multiple items, please do not send payment until I send an invoice.
