content: MRS-17 (Mississippian Reed Springs, Variety 17): MRS Variety 17. Noted in SW MO.(NW AR. 1) This is a light gray to blue gray chert with the field peppered with small tadpole-shaped elongated dark forms. Some rounded dark spots are also present. The chert texture is medium and the chert features average workability. This is fairly rare variety. I have found it at 23MD-B and at the Chrisman quarry. It probably has a wider distribution than this.
