@masutacuojama I was shocked to see it there. was the first last specimen I had seen in Morocco, since then I have seen a dozen or so similar specimens come from that locality.

these are fakes; most of the public is naive as to the origin of these fossils. This sickens me. The men working in Morocco are using real examples of trilobites to make their fakes; the moroccans sell them as replicas, but they are bought in America by dealers and sold as the real thing.
That is kind of like saying all American's are fat and lazy. Generalizations when you really have no knowledge base is pure ignorance. To claim something is fake when you have no physical evidence other than a video is absurd. I GUARANTEE no one in Morocco making fake fossils even owns an air compressor...
Having taken this video and worked with these people... these are genuine fossils being prepared no more than a fossil fish from Wyoming is "filled in" with an iodine brush.

Thanks for posting. At the Quartzite Arizona rock show this year there was a lot of Moroccan fossils. Now a mystery is revealed.
