It is difficult to find teeth complete.
No Restoration is evident on this tooth.
These teeth come from the massive phosphate deposits in the Oulad Abdoun Basin, near Khouribga, Morocco.
These deposits are mined for phosphate, one of Morocco's biggest exports. The fossils are collected as a byproduct of the mining operations, saving them from certain destruction by the rock crusher.
