Lignite couche K-T Mexique #19 – 1,7 g
74,90 $
This fossilized charcoal is a rare witness to the precise moment of the cataclysm that marked the beginning of the extinction of the dinosaurs.
This fossilized material comes from forest residues, rich in iridium, charred following a giant meteorite impact in the Yucatan Peninsula ~65 million years ago.
Outcrops of the K-T (Cretaceous-Tertiary) boundary rich in this lignite have appeared in different regions of Mexico in the Sierra Madre Oriental.
This lignite is currently protected and therefore rare to find on the market.
