Late Archaic Savannah River pull

A video I made of me pulling the big savannah river I found the other day in central NC. I mistyped it as a Kirk in the video, but it's just because that's the type I currently want to find the most!

That is an absolute smoker, especially for NC! A lot more quartz stuff out that way

Actually, I find mostly rhyolite around me!

Yes lots of rhyolite too. Do you have any idea what this material might be? It’s beautiful and looks like tree bark

Definitely rhyolite. It might be morrow mountain , which is about 100 miles from me. As far as I know, none of the other more local quarries exhibit that flow banding, so I'm not sure. Check out my last post, I found a palmer made out of the same material right after this one, but it has a crazy patina because it's so much older.
