Silicon Dioxide (SiO2) with metallic coating/dye
Slag
Glassy silicate byproduct (anthropogenic material)
Polished obsidian
Volcanic glass; predominantly rhyolitic SiO₂
Tumbled gray stone, likely quartz-rich pebble
Probable microcrystalline quartz/chalcedony (SiO₂), possibly gray jasper or quartzite
Sea Glass
Man-made silicate glass (Amorphous silicon dioxide)
Polished stone sphere, possibly agate or jasper
Likely microcrystalline quartz (SiO₂); exact variety cannot be confirmed from the image
Sandstone-based Concrete Fragment
Cementitious Composite with Sedimentary Aggregate
Lava Rock with Fabric Impression
Scoria or Basalt with anthropogenic impressions
Black-and-white agate geode pendant
Agate (microcrystalline quartz, SiO₂), likely a hollow geode slice with chalcedony and drusy quartz
