I look for debitage too...interesting to see what kinds of flint the First peoples used. There is no doubt some campsites have been considered 5 star-sites for around 3000 years. There is lots of indication of Jasper, Gunflint Silica, and the Knife lake Siltstone. Also more occasionally Hudson Bay area flints, Obsidian, and Knife River (western North Dakota) Flint, and Quartzites from southern MN and further south.
