Pink scalenohedron (dogtooth) calcite and sometimes sphalerite can be found in geodes at this location in McKee Creek.	According to the source, geodes can be found 2 miles north of Perry in McKee creek which would be a half mile west of the intersection of 107 and 104 just south of 104.  The coordinates that I marked are just there and from Google earth it appears that a large quarry is close by.
