Fossil technicians at Research Casting International release fossils from rock and reconstruct the most iconic dinosaursRoberto VerdecchiaThe team at Research Casting International in Trenton, Ontario is responsible for preparing and building many dinosaur skeletons that are on display in museums around the world.
It's at RCI where the magic happens — turning these fossils, embedded in rock, into the perfect pieces you see in museums. If there are enough bones, RCI's "skeleton crew" can get to work mounting a complete specimen for public display. "Over the past 36 years … we've mounted over 1,000 dinosaur skeletons," says Peter May, owner of RCI. " paleontologist working with a museum might mount five or six. So we have a lot of first-hand working knowledge of dinosaur anatomy to draw upon when filling in gaps."
