The most common of the creatures found in the Brule Formation is the Oreodon. This was a small creature, similar to a goat or sheep. Other creatures found in the Brule formation include the Mesohippus Pardi. One of the earliest horses, it was about the size of a dog, about 24 inches (60 cm) at the shoulders, its skull was about 8 inches long. It resembled modern horses very closely in the skeleton; it was just a lot smaller. It also had 3 toes; it had not developed a single hoof as yet.

Other creatures found more rarely include squirrels, mice, ictops, titanotheres, prairie dogs, beavers, and rabbits. All of the above creatures are between 25 to 40 million years old. A lot of work goes into finding, cleaning, and preparing the pieces for display. The pieces are very unusual and rare which makes them true collector items.

Base is detachable.

Gem stone mushroom

I have ordered from this website about 4 times because I can trust that I'm not being ripped off. I do at home tests on the crystals to make sure they are real (magnets, burn test, scrath test, uv light test) and so far everything appears authentic and really good quality. I love everything I've bought

Natural gemstone

A beautiful natural gem! I really like it. It came as ordered and nicely wrapped. I was having a hard time finding a garnet around my home and see isn't want anything fancy.
