Help with material

[geezer77]

Anyone name this chert? Flint? It was laying in one of those $10 bins at a show I recently went to and I just had to bring it home with me due to the awesome redish brown orange color!

No idea Geezer but have found points up here in NW Indiana that appear to be the same. Funny thing, I never find flakes of the same material.

Looks to be a bit porous like some of the Alabama stuff I purchased a few years back from a couple. Hard to say without it in hand, but my educated guess would be what is known as Brick Red Jasper. Hope that helps-Bill
