Bauxite
Bauxite (Al(OH)3, AlO(OH))
Fossil sea urchin (echinoid)
Fossilized echinoid test, likely a regular sea urchin (Class Echinoidea); exact genus and age require locality and examination
Iron-rich weathered rock or limonite/goethite nodule
Limonite (mixture dominated by goethite, FeO(OH)·nH₂O), possibly with quartz or clay
Bauxite

Cobalt Glass Slug (Man-made Glass)
Amorphous Silica with Cobalt Oxide (SiO2 + CoO)
Weathered iron-rich rock or concretion
Likely limonite/goethite-bearing concretion; exact identification requires testing
Weathered iron-rich rock fragment
Provisional identification: limonite/goethite-rich material, likely an ironstone fragment
Likely weathered brown rock or iron-rich mineral specimen
Indeterminate from image; possible limonite/goethite-rich material
Chakra Stone (Composite / Man-made Bonded Gemstones)
Composite of Quartz, Lapis Lazuli, Aventurine, Tiger's Eye, and Jasper (SiO2, (Na,Ca)8(AlSiO4)6(S,Cl,SO4,OH)2, etc.)
Bauxite
Bauxite (mixture of Hydrous Aluminum Oxides)
Lapis Lazuli
Complex rock primarily containing Lazurite (Na,Ca)8(AlSiO4)6(S,Cl,SO4,OH)2
Native metal specimen, likely galena or metallic slag
Probably galena (lead sulfide, PbS); identification is uncertain from the image alone

Bauxite (Al(OH)3, γ-AlO(OH), and α-AlO(OH))
Bauxite (Pisolitic Bauxite)
Bauxite (mixture of Hydrous Aluminum Oxides)
Bauxite
Alumina ore (Mixture of Gibbsite, Boehmite, and Diaspore)
Fossilized ammonite
Ammonoidea (likely a small, chambered ammonite fossil)
Polished brecciated jasper
Jasper, an opaque microcrystalline variety of quartz (SiO₂), with iron-oxide coloration and possible breccia fragments
Limonite (Yellow Ochre)
Hydrated Iron Oxide (FeO(OH)·nH2O)
Polished fossiliferous limestone
Bioclastic carbonate rock, primarily calcite (CaCO₃)
Bauxite
Bauxite (Mixture including Gibbsite Al(OH)3, Boehmite γ-AlO(OH), and Diaspore α-AlO(OH))
Lapis Lazuli
Na8(Al6Si6O24)S2 (composed primarily of Lazurite, Calcite, and Pyrite)
Lapis lazuli
Lapis lazuli; primarily lazurite (Na₃Ca(Si₃Al₃)O₁₂S), with calcite and pyrite
Fossilized tooth, likely mammoth or mastodon molar fragment
Proboscidean molar enamel and dentin; Mammuthus or Mammut sp. (tentative)
Bauxite (Laterite Clay)
Bauxite (mixture of Hydrous Aluminum Oxides: Gibbsite Al(OH)3, Boehmite and Diaspore AlO(OH))
Acrylic or Resin (Synthetic Imitation)
Polymethyl Methacrylate (PMMA) or Polyepoxide
Everest
Canis lupus familiaris (Siberian Husky)
Weathered, iron-stained metamorphic rock (probable schist or gneiss)
Quartz–feldspar–mica metamorphic rock; exact identification requires a fresh surface and thin-section or mineral tests
Polished amber
Fossilized tree resin (primarily organic polymerized diterpenes)
Note: Item is not a geological specimen
Polyester mesh and Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) polymer
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).
