Cubic Zirconium Dioxide (ZrO2)
Silicon Carbide (Carborundum)
Silicon Carbide (SiC) / Moissanite (natural)
Titanium-Coated Hematite (Aura Hematite)
Titanium-bonded Hematite (Fe2O3 with a Ti coating)
Goldstone
Not a natural mineral or rock. It is an ornamental glass.
Sandstone-based Concrete Fragment
Cementitious Composite with Sedimentary Aggregate
Brick
Fired clay or Ceramic material (no specific mineralogical scientific name as it's a composite)
Titanium Coated Kyanite (Aura Kyanite)
Aluminosilicate (Al2SiO5) with a Titanium-Niobium vacuum-deposited coating
Blue Goldstone
Goldstone (artificial glass)
Slag Glass
Anthropogenic Amorphous Silicon Dioxide
Titanium Aura Quartz (Bismuth-coated Druzy)
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2) with Titanium/Metal vapor coating
Cat's Eye Moonstone (Simulated/Synthetic or natural Cat's Eye Quartz/Glass)
There is no single scientific name. The appearance suggests either: Moonstone (feldspar group), Cat's Eye Quartz (SiO2), Apatite (Ca5(PO4)3(F,Cl,OH)), or most likely a synthetic material such as Fiber Optic Glass or 'Opalite' (a type of glass).
Conglomerate
Conglomerate (Sedimentary rock containing rounded clasts)
Picture Jasper
Silicified sedimentary or volcanic rock (primarily SiO2)
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).
