River Rock / Stream Pebble
Fluvial Clast / Rounded Sedimentary Particle
Quartz-rich conglomeratic rock (likely granitic breccia or conglomerate)
Uncertain; quartz–feldspar rock in a fine-grained matrix, possibly weathered granite or polymictic conglomerate
Conglomerate with Quartz Inclusions
Conglomerate (clastic sedimentary rock) with internal Quartz (SiO2)
Light-colored weathered rocks, possibly limestone or quartz-rich stone
Probable limestone/calcitic rock; exact identification is uncertain because strong flash overexposure obscures texture
Polymict conglomerate with a projecting pebble
Conglomerate; clast-supported polymict conglomerate, dominated by quartz/feldspar and lithic fragments in a cemented matrix
Milky quartz
Quartz (silicon dioxide, SiO₂)
Quartz Pebble
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)
Quartz pebble
Silicon dioxide (SiO2)
Quartz Pebble
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)
Quartz Pebble
Quartz (Silicon Dioxide, SiO2)
