More chert up that way than here. Nice finds. I've always thought the material on those pinkish ones (3) was Novaculite. I've only found a few pieces of it here in Elmore Co., AL. Doesn't seem like chert/flint as with the more common Coastal Plains Chert and quartz/quartzite. What do you think it is or do you know for certain?

It’s Ridge and Valley chert. I don’t find much CP chert if any. I do find Fort Payne and Knox here though.
 

My eyes keep converting to the pink (and the paleo base).
Every time they turn that field that’s the first place I look is where I found the Paleo base but so far not even a flake yet.
