Japanese garden lantern and stepping stones
Likely granite (quartz, feldspar, and mica), though exact stone cannot be confirmed from the image
Tumbled yellow quartz pebble (likely citrine or iron-stained quartz)
Quartz, SiO₂; yellow coloration likely from iron impurities or irradiation-related defects
Fossiliferous limestone, possibly an oyster or other bivalve fossil
Calcite (CaCO₃) shell material preserved in micritic limestone; exact fossil taxon cannot be confirmed from one image
Tumbled yellow quartz, possibly citrine
Quartz (SiO₂), likely iron-colored citrine or pale golden chalcedony
Likely polished quartz or quartz-rich pebble
Quartz (silicon dioxide, SiO₂), possibly milky quartz
Chalcedony / milky quartz flake
Microcrystalline quartz (SiO₂), likely chalcedony; possibly a worked quartzite or chert fragment
Polished red plume agate
Microcrystalline quartz (chalcedony), SiO₂, with iron-oxide inclusions
Coral fossil (likely fossilized colonial coral)
Calcareous fossil coral; commonly *Scleractinia* or *Tabulate/ rugose coral* (identification requires close pore-pattern examination)
Conglomerate
Polymictic conglomerate; rounded clasts cemented in a fine-grained matrix
Polished septarian-style jasper or rhyolite
Likely silica-rich volcanic rock, possibly rhyolite, with iron-oxide and manganese-oxide veining
Tumbled brown agate (likely moss or plume agate)
Microcrystalline quartz, chiefly chalcedony (SiO₂), with iron-oxide and possibly mineral inclusions
Green cabochon ring stone (likely dyed jade, aventurine, or glass imitation)
Undetermined; possible nephrite jade (Ca₂(Mg,Fe)₅Si₈O₂₂(OH)₂), jadeite (NaAlSi₂O₆), or green aventurine quartz
Gemstone jewelry ensemble
Likely mixed gemstone and glass-bead jewelry; exact stones cannot be determined from the image
Polished jasper or chert pebble
Microcrystalline quartz (SiO₂), likely iron- and clay-rich jasper/chert
Decorative natural-stone tile assortment, likely marble and breccia
Calcite-rich marble and polymict carbonate breccia; exact varieties cannot be confirmed from the image
Rounded quartz-rich pebble
