As a matter of greater detail, I only know of one site- a creek, where these are found this big and this crystalline! We call it the "Blue Hole" and it is, largely, SECRET!

OK, I live in Oktibbeha County, MS and find marcasite nodules often- these are not from "Selma Chalk Farm", but from the Selma Chalk Formation which runs through the Black Belt chalk region of MS and AL. These are unique on this Earth; no specimens quite like them anywhere but here!
