your guess is probabl better than mine

Recently I have been bringing home a lot more items, you guys are all responsible!!! I have only taken home things I could see that were bi-facially worked or had an obvious use, point, knives, drills, decoration - etc. Last few months I have decided to pocket things that were broken pieces, unknowns, etc. 3 pictures of something I got from a recent trip out on the Fraser River, the material is fraser river basalt, early era as the green patina is quite complete. Love to hear some guesses, it has a stone ground edge - rounded over unlike a fish knife that would be ground sharp. The pic of the edge is taken with angle, the piece is only 3/8" thick. Hope the pics do it justice, I love this kind of stuff.

I know it is a learning curve for new hunters as to what to bring home and what not to. When I first started this hobby I use to bring home rocks that were fractured by mother nature. I didnt know rocks that tumbled in the creeks and rivers would fracture and then look as if they had been worked, I didnt know weather could do it either. Mother nature with heat and and cold can actually cause rocks of certain types to fracture into slivers. I believe what you have is a sliver of one such rock. If it had been worked the edges would not be smooth as you see it they would have secondary flaking. Yous from what I can see has no secondary flaking. I hope you understand what I have written. Believe it or not one day you will look back and actually ask yourself why you even had picked it up. HH, rock
