Tennessee Quartz

[Tnmountains]

Some I dug in rock shelters in the mountains others I found along waterways. Some are pure white and seem soft others are real crystal like,like glass. One is a knife and still very sharp for quartz. Enjoyed seeing the quartz everyone else had posted so dug these out. I am thinking I have some more somehwere
Thanks for looking

Wow, those are beautiful! I haven't seen any quartz around here, mostly flint, but I would love to find one of those beauties!

Nice finds. Milky quartz is the only quartz we MIGHT l find visible flaking on. I have some, I'll try to post. It's so difficult to get the camera to show the flaking but will try..

Nice finds TN, Thanks for sharing.

Thanks everyone
I have been enjoying everyone else posting quartz on here so I did some. It may be the bottom of the barrel on material but it sure is pretty. I am sure it was appreciated then as it is today.
JYD I have never seen that Grey color before. I would love to see a better picture of that random thrown in beautiful knapped piece above it though ?? lol Thats nice !

You inspired me. Almost bow season here. I got three extra doe tags so that gives me 2 bucks and 11 does to work towards.

Sounds like you're gonna need an extra freezer dude, that's a pile of tags. I'll send those points to you next week, so pm me sometime in a few days with an address to send them too. Should be 5 or 6, couple to practice / get familiar with. Later.

JD :

Your grey piece looks more like Talahatta quartzite.

In some parts of the country, people call quartzite "quartz," but they're two different materials.
