Some years ago, I helped an old rancher-friend clear some of his pasture in North Florida . There were several large lime rocks that he put in a pile & a few others in the pasture that needed to be dug up & hauled to the stack. One rock caught my eye & I finally worked my way to it & started digging. The more I dug, the larger it seemed to get ! It turned out to be a huge geode , about 18" in diameter. I finally uncovered it & needed help rolling it up & out of the hole. To my surprise , it was already cracked open & missing the " top." All along the top edges were better quality chert & you can see where it has been flaked over the years. There is no telling how many points this provided. A knapper friend looked at it & made a few nice points from it. The pix aren't the best, but I hope you enjoy these.
