Central Fla.
It looks like nothing I've ever found and I've not been able to find anyone else with any of it.. The inclusion is a creamy gray to white with a semi translucent crystal material in it that is blue.
I'm guessing it came from north of the area somewhere.
My apologies to those who have seen this thing 100 times but I'm still looking for the same answer.

Heck, I knew you would know that. I wasn't trying to tell you what chert is, just narrowing it down by the formation (like Ocala chert formation) and relating it to what I know already about a formation just 8 miles from my house. Elements rich in that material will give it that pretty blue color; looks exotic to me. I definitely could not refer to the specific name of that material, so like you said someone who knows that region well should be able to help better. Good luck!
