Tumbled White Quartz
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)
Rounded brown pebble, likely quartz-rich river stone
Indeterminate lithic pebble; possibly iron-stained quartzite or chert
Polished brecciated jasper (likely)
Brecciated jasper, an opaque microcrystalline quartz (SiO₂) with contrasting silica-rich fragments and matrix
Quartz Vein Rock
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)
Agate
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)
Small rounded pebble, likely porous volcanic rock
Possibly vesicular basalt or scoria; exact identification is not possible from the image alone
Purple glassy pebble, possibly slag glass
Unidentified; likely man-made glass rather than a natural mineral
Limestone
Calcium carbonate (CaCO3)
Small gray-green pebble (likely fine-grained volcanic rock)
Indeterminate; possibly andesite or basalt
Quartz Geode
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)
Weathered quartz-bearing rock, possibly calcite vein fragment
Indeterminate; likely quartz (SiO₂) with carbonate minerals such as calcite (CaCO₃)
Quartz Druzy (Geode Fragment)
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)
Sandstone with Concretions / Liesegang Rings
Arenite with iron oxide banding
Wavellite with Quartz
Al3(PO4)2(OH,F)3 & SiO2
Unknown dark mineral fragment

Agate
Silicon dioxide, SiO2
Small iron-stained pebble
Likely iron-oxide-stained quartz-rich rock; exact identification is not possible from the image alone
