Description

Ouranosaurus Dinosaur Tooth Fossil from the Elrhaz Formation

This fossil specimen is identified as an Ouranosaurus dinosaur tooth fossil and is associated with the Elrhaz Formation of the Cretaceous. It is a distinctive addition to a dinosaur fossil collection, offering collectors an opportunity to own a genuine fossil connected with the prehistoric fauna of Niger. The product identification combines the dinosaur name, tooth fossil type, geological formation and Cretaceous age for easy reference and display.

Ouranosaurus is recognised as a dinosaur genus, and its fossil record is associated with Africa. A dinosaur tooth is especially appealing to collectors because teeth are durable fossil elements that can preserve a direct connection to the feeding biology of extinct animals. The tooth form, surface texture and preserved mineralised structure can be examined as part of a personal study collection or displayed as a conversation piece.

Elrhaz Formation Cretaceous Fossil

The Elrhaz Formation provides the geological context for this fossil identification. Its inclusion in the Cretaceous places the specimen within one of the most important periods in Earth history for dinosaur evolution and diversification. Cretaceous fossils are widely collected for their connection to the ecosystems that existed before the end-Cretaceous extinction event. This specimen is offered specifically as an Ouranosaurus tooth fossil from that geological setting.

Gadaoufa, Tenere Desert, Niger

The associated location is Gadaoufa, Tenere Desert, Niger. This locality information adds geographic context to the specimen and makes it a useful educational piece for collectors interested in North African fossils, dinosaur discoveries and the geological record of the Sahara region. The location can be included on a display label alongside the dinosaur identification and formation information.

Collector Display and Study Piece

This Ouranosaurus fossil tooth is suitable for dinosaur fossil collectors, geology enthusiasts, classroom-style educational displays and natural history collections. It can be presented with other Cretaceous fossils or used as a focal specimen in a collection focused on dinosaur teeth, African palaeontology or fossils from the Elrhaz Formation. The compact tooth format makes it practical for careful display while retaining strong fossil and geological interest.
