Elrathia kingii Trilobite

 

My cousin Kenny just finished prepping this fossil using a dental tool and engraver to uncover mostly a whole trilobite. It appears to be an Elrathia kingii (Meek, 1870) trilobite. It was found in the Wheeler Formation of Delta, Utah. The fossil dates to the Cambrian Period.
