Those are some neat rocks - especially in the first pic. Sorry, can't help with ID

The bottom three in the first pictures look like jasper I've picked up, especially middle of those three. The bottom of the second picture looks like flint.

Just guess without the rocks in hand of course but I find a lot of similar stuff in the Eagle Pass rockpile. The banded specimens look to be some fancy flint and the middle in the top pic perhaps wonderstone type rhyolite. Does look like some nice colorful jasper or chert in there too. Pretty nice selection of south Texas gravel.....Mel

I lived in Port Aransas growing up and never found anything cool like this!!! I did find selenite crystals in the dredge mud from when they dug the ship channel to Corpus and also some hollow pipes that looked like fused mud - maybe lightening strikes. Lucky you!
