Quartz Pebble
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)
Green obsidian (likely molded or heat-treated glass-like specimen)
Volcanic glass; predominantly rhyolitic composition (silica-rich amorphous SiO₂)
Polished white calcite sphere (identification tentative)
Calcite, CaCO₃
Green sea glass (likely bottle glass)
Man-made soda–lime silicate glass; not a natural mineral
Sea Glass
Amorphous silicon dioxide (Man-made glass weathered by nature)
Aura Quartz (Titanium/Gold coated)
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2) with metallic vapor deposition
Polished white chalcedony or quartz pendant
Microcrystalline quartz (chalcedony), SiO₂; exact identification is uncertain from the image
Iron Slag
Iron/Steel Slag (Ferrosilicate Glass)
Iron Slag (Industrial Byproduct)
Anthropogenic Vitrification Product/Ferrous Slag
Polished black stone, likely obsidian
Obsidian (volcanic glass; mostly silica-rich rhyolitic composition)
Jasper Conglomerate
Clastic Sedimentary Rock (Conglomeratic Quartzite)
Quartz Conglomerate
Quartz Conglomerate (clastic sedimentary rock)
Blue opal heart cabochon
Common opal, hydrated amorphous silica (SiO₂·nH₂O), likely blue-dyed or synthetic opalite
Slag (Industrial Glass/Glassy Rock)
Anthropogenic Vitreous Material
Sea Glass (White/Clear)
Amorphous Silica (Alkali-Lime-Silica Glass), SiO2 + Na2O + CaO
Aura Quartz
Titanium/Titanium-Gold treated Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)
Red Slag Glass
Amorphous Silica (Industrial byproduct with metallic oxide dopants)
Botryoidal chalcedony (likely agate/jasper variety)
Microcrystalline quartz, SiO₂
Polished silver sheen obsidian heart
Obsidian (volcanic glass), primarily rhyolitic silica-rich glass
Quartz Pebble
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)
Red goldstone beads
Goldstone (man-made copper-bearing glass; not a natural mineral)
Blue glassy tumbled stone, likely blue chalcedony or slag glass
Chalcedony (microcrystalline SiO₂), possibly man-made blue glass
Green sea glass (likely bottle glass)
Man-made soda-lime silicate glass; not a natural mineral
Sea Glass
Amorphous Silicon Dioxide (Man-made glass weathered by nature)
Weathered conglomerate
Polymictic clast-supported conglomerate, with a sandy or finer-grained matrix
Conglomerate (likely pebble-rich rock)
Lithified conglomerate; exact composition cannot be determined from the photo
Metal Alloy (Likely Pewter or Sterling Silver)
Not a natural geological specimen; composed of refined metals. If pewter, it's a tin-based alloy. If sterling silver, it's 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metals (usually copper).
Conglomerate Pebble (with Chert / Quartz)
Sedimentary Conglomerate / Breccia Pebble
Conglomerate with Quartzite Pebbles
Clastic sedimentary rock (Conglomerate)
Likely blue-green glassy slag or a weathered mineral fragment
Unidentified; the image does not show diagnostic features sufficient for a mineral identification
Red-orange cabochon, likely carnelian or glass imitation
Carnelian: chalcedony (microcrystalline SiO₂), commonly iron-colored
Quartz pebble
Silicon dioxide (SiO2)
Opalite
Synthetic Opalised Glass
Carborundum (Silicon Carbide)
