[painterx7]

Here are some flint nodules that I track hoed out today digging a footer . I normally find these guys but never in this amount haha . Wanted to show everyone what those NA 's were digging up all those years ago

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

We could have been tight friends under different circumstances, you realize that Painter, right?...people digging my brain, c'mon...

hahahahahahahahahahahaha ok they didn't mine for chert I gotcha

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 ?

gator they are plenty large enough about the size of volleyballs some bigger some smaller

 

[GatorBoy]

Wow.. I bet there's some crystallization and some fossils inside some of those

It's the most nodules I've ever dug out of such a small area i worked at a different spot today but hopefully I can get back there this week to load some up I can't wait !!!!

 

[bci101tractors]

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

Lol yes you are right I bet your as hard headed and stubborn as me haha

Painter, find a way to break into one. Nice finds.

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.



thanks
