Ball Mill Resurgence Natural Area

This geological natural area contains a sinkhole that normally acts as a water drain, but backs up as a spring after heavy rains. The resurgence acts as a natural rock tumbler which smooths and rounds angular rock fragments that fall into it. The area is forested and also contains several small, dry sinkholes. It is in the Mississippi River Section of the Ozark Border Natural Division.
