Hi All-
I've spent 20 years roaming around CA and NV looking mostly for crypto-crystalline silicates that flake well for reproducing ancient tool technology.
am example is obsidian I collect from northern CA to reproduce known artifacts from archaeological collections.
I really like to find colorful chert and opalized wood, but my favorite is waxy chalcedony, and I'm ALWAYS looking for obsidian sources I've never been to.
I'd like to trade some of my material for CCS from anywhere in the U.S., so if you have some good stuff lets palaver!
