Yard notes & kiln story
Description
Elasmosaurus teeth from the Upper Cretaceous from the Oulad Abdoun Basin are relatively more scarce than the Mosasaurus
in contrast to regularly coiled ammonites
It can be seen how part of its thin outer layer (the enamel) has lost by erosion and has exposed the underlying layer of dentine
A preparation of this piece could make the rest of the teeth show up from under the rock
which lived at the middle of the Cretaceous (between the Albian and Cenomanian stages

In order to classify them it would be necessary to cut off a section for analysis. Although they are exceedingly rare when compared to terrestrial rocks, these are the most abundant type of meteorite and are referred to as common chondrites. H and L (designating the amount of metal contained) type chondrites have been already extensively studied. Composed largely
