- Description
- Fossilized worm burrows in impure limestone matrix. Structure of worm tubes are well preserved, tubes made up of mineral calcite. Low energy environment resulting in tunnels being parallel to bedding planes. Small pyrite concretion on one side. From the Cambrian period. Recrystallization in the limestone and orientation in the shale parting suggest low grade metamorphism has taken place.
