Previously it was discharged into the river, but it is now diverted to limit additional pollution of the river mouth area.
The specimen was preserved in pyrite, or fool's gold, making it easy to produce 3D models of the fossil using CT scans. Credits: Luke Parry/Yu Liu/Ruixin Ran (3D models). - courtesy Luke Parry/Yu ...
