I found allot of natural flint today it was every where. They sure didnt have to go far for it around here. Just jump in the creek.

I'm not sure of the size of them but unless they're very large nodules they don't really leave room to make much maybe some flake tools.
I would be cracking them open to see if a geode was formed in any of them

Look I apologized and I will again mr tractor it just seems everytime I turn around you only post to disagree with me I was aggravated last night when I posted that and quickly deleted it as I said I am sorry for the things I said months ago ... I was acting childish and I apologize I bet we would get along just fine but if we keep at it like this it won't do either one of us any good I can bury the hatchet can you ?

Consider it buried, lets start over. I have no doubt we can get along, we are much alike, perhaps the problem to begin with??

is this a chert nodule? The second layer looks like chert in a way, the outside maybe like some water worn cortex material, and if there are geodes in some, ...well, there is something in this. Pretty strange looking, and I've wondered if it's a nodule. Found it in a creek.
