Thread: I Found It Over There

Oh just CRAP, now i have another thing to hunt around for and hoard up in piles ...

Where do i go to learn more about the specifics of the geologies to consider? There is a layer of shale in the area.

And chert and flint and limestone and sandstone and geodes if i go up and down the elevations. I'll has to get me a cutting method.

I gave up trying to find knappable flint for use in my lock. The rocks are sparky but fracture in a linear fashion, not conchoidially- making it impossible to knap. It is very hard and sparky though. I still look for lock-sized chips. Flatted a tire on the stuff recently too-right through 8-ply tread.

Could make some nice square/smooth fire-ring rocks ...good for keeping your cowboy coffee warm by the fire!
