The study and restoration of these fossils and plaster casts were a great opportunity to face specific demands and different types of objects. The composition of the specimens was widely investigated, and the presence of pyrite in a fossil influenced our intervention methods. The molding on the half-crane was an opportunity to approach molding in a scientific and educational context by realizing a rebuilding of the rostrum.
