content: MKP-2 (Mississippian Keokuk Prior Aggregate, Variety 2): MK Variety 2. Mayes Co. OK. This is a cream colored medium textured chert with hazy irregular gray wisps and splotches widely scattered on the field. Many very tiny light and dark gray spots are peppered throughout the chert. A few small crystal filled vugs and healedfractures can be seen. Resembles some of the Warsaw chert of SW MO. Works well.

content: KEOKUK (Prior Aggregate). I am separating the Keokuk varieties found near Prior; OK. from those found elsewhere because the local geology in that area is far from clear. Some stone 'in areas which are designated Keokuk on the Oklahoma geological map has characteristics of upper Reeds Spring, while some of the chert suggests the Elsey (a term which has replaced the Grand Falls in Missouri).
