Bill it was a piece of white quartz given to me by a friend who found it in a plowed field, it is local from near Troy NC. He likes to look for arrowheads and sometime finds large flakes.

 Back in the late 70's I had a drill rig in Troy prospecting for gold. We were at an old Confederate Army mine site out side of town. I came home with a bunch of quartze crystals around 6" long from that area, and clear.
