Isn't there a noviculite quarry around there somewhere? Seems like I read about it once and planned to stop there if I ever went to MOJAM.

Go down rt y and try cedar creek. Just east of the creek back up the road the is a county road headed south take it. The road will take you to an old bridge steel structure that creek had a lot of rock in it. You might check the quarry that is locate just west. It will be the first public pull off on the right side back down that hill is a quarry. I don't know if it has flint in it but the rock face is open. This the mark twain area. I lived 1 mile from there 10years ago
