A beautiful polished dinosaur bone pendant (measures approx 2 1/4") from Lin Ottinger's Moab Rock Shop. Dinosaur bone is a placate stone and is thought to be valuable in overcoming gloominess and gives the promise of emotional strength during a grieving process.

Lin Ottinger started selling rocks in Moab in 1958 and established the Moab Rock Shop in 1968. Lin's knowledge of rocks, minerals, & fossils, along with his discoveries, has earned him the title of The Dinosaur Man. 

At least FOUR species of dinosaurs were found by him - including Saurapods (Apatosaurus / Brachiosaurus), Euoplocephalus, Utahraptor, and Iguanodon Ottingeri. Since this was the first Iguanodon found in the US, it is named after shop owner, Lin Ottinger. Many of his discoveries have been donated to museums & universities, including BYU in Provo, UT.

The shop specializes in dinosaur bone, petrified wood, crystals, mineral specimens, fossils and meteorites.
