Slag
Ferrous Slag (Amorphous calcium-magnesium-aluminum silicates)
Tumbled coral limestone
Biogenic calcarenite/coral limestone, predominantly calcium carbonate (CaCO₃; calcite/aragonite)
Concrete or asphalt-like aggregate surface with a dark fragment
Uncertain; likely artificial concrete containing mixed lithic aggregate, not a natural rock
Tumbled quartz-rich pebble
Likely quartz-bearing chert or jasper; primarily microcrystalline SiO₂
Dyed pink agate slice
Agate (microcrystalline quartz, SiO₂), commonly chalcedony with artificial dye
Dyed Agate (Tumbled)
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2) - Microcrystalline Quartz
Likely black beach pebble
Undetermined; possibly basalt, chert, or dark slate
Dyed Quartz Pendant
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2) with artificial dye
Drill Core Sample
Cylindrical Rock Core (Specific mineralogy varies by extraction site)
Tumbled chalcedony or quartz pebble
Microcrystalline quartz, SiO₂ (likely chalcedony); exact identification is uncertain from the image
Carnelian (a variety of Chalcedony)
Cryptocrystalline Quartz (SiO2) with iron oxide inclusions
Agate (Dyed High-Grade Polished Slice)
Silicon dioxide (SiO2), Chalcedony crystal variety
Red sandstone pebble
Quartz-rich sandstone, commonly ferruginous sandstone (SiO₂-dominated)
Fossil Shark Tooth
Otodus sp. or Carcharocles sp. (likely fossilized Chondrichthyes)
Dalmatian Stone
Peralkaline Feldsphathic Igneous Rock
Asphalt aggregate (crushed stone in bitumen)
Artificial composite; predominantly crushed granite, basalt, limestone, and/or recycled aggregate bound by bitumen
Fossilized Shark Tooth

Mixed sandstone and iron-rich sedimentary rock fragments
Quartz arenite/subarkose, with ferruginous cement and possible iron-oxide staining
Polished black stone, likely black jasper or basalt
Most likely microcrystalline quartz (black jasper/chert), SiO₂; basalt is a plausible alternative
Metal Alloy (Jewelry)
