Harrodsburg chert
Just a question for anyone here who's knowledgeable on KY material. Does Harrodsburg chert outcrop in Mercer county, or is the name from something else?

According to DeRegnaucourt's Chert Book, Harrodsburg Chert source is in Monroe,Lawrence, Jackson andBrown Counties of Indiana. I do find some up here in Shelby Co.

Further reading in the book does state that the chert does have outcroppings that go into central Kentucky

I've found it in southern Illinois and it's darker stuff (black or brown).
