Don,
Do you know the name of the quarry? We have a bunch of them around here.

Unfortunately no Denny. This piece was collected in the 1970's by the guy I got it from. (ebay win). From what I understand, the quarry has been closed for quite a while. I'll contact the seller and see if he remembers.

Sheltie you might check out some information on Salado Creek. I heard there are tons of urchins to be found there. I hope to get there one day.
