Dalton Knapper:
That's the best looking Wonder Stone I have seen and there seems to be mountains of it! Wyoming or Utah? I think it is found mostly in SW Wyoming, but I'm going by memory here and have never been rockhounding in Wyo, just fishing!

JoJoDapyro:
Tooele County Utah. Near the town of Vernon. West Central Utah.

JoJoDapyro:
Here is what I have so far. I am not a good knapper. I have huge issues with spalling, and pressure flaking. This stuff is super hard, so pressure flaking seems even more difficult for me. But it is shapable. I need to make an Ishi stick and knap sitting down.

TRACY:
Nice haul! Will it take heat to knap easier?

JoJoDapyro:
I wish I knew. Mullet is getting a shipment of it . he said he would let me know.
