AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Superb accumulation of belemnite rostra from the Middle Jurassic, in a limestone block from the Pliensbachian (Carixian), 195 million years old, from FRANCE. This large block contains more than 110 belemnite rostra! ....the largest measuring 11 cm long, forming a true seabed of that era. Large plaque measuring 43 cm high, 26 cm wide, weighing 10 kg. This block of belemnites required a very long and meticulous preparation process. The color is natural, with no additions, nor recollage, no restoration."
