Found by a friend.
About the size of a softball.
Hardness 7
Concoidal fracture
You can follow the red rings all the way around the the rock.
Not seen anything like this around here before.
Not sure if I should make and arrowhead out of it or a piece of jewelry.

I'd make a piece of jewellery from it, nice piece! I've seen similar from Ohio before.
I think it was sold as "Ohio Flint", but I'm not 100% sure.
