Far NE Oklahoma finds, Delaware County

[pyoung]

The white point was found in a field. The grey point was found near an active spring. I have not seen points made out of the grey material. Anyone have any info on this material or who might have made it?

Just to compare I found this yesterday and I have never seen this type before either. Is it the same? This one is a preform.

The white point is a Barry type, it's made of Keokuk chert. The "gray" piece is simply a broken biface, it's made of Reeds Springs chert. Where are you in Delaware Co?
