Talk to you soon, Jen -

5 years, 5 months ago5 years, 5 months agoHi @mackenzie-peil , the Lee Creek Mine is actually the name of the locality not the name of the formation. We don’t know the formation for the Aurora matrix, but we know that it is part of the Chesapeake Group. Also, the two fossils you’ve identified as brachiopods are actually clams. The scientific name is the class Bivalvia.
