Most look like copper ore mixes (chrysocolla,turquoise,shattuckite). The second could be a variscite, which is generally green but does come in other colors. It is also often found with copper ores. No idea on the 5th one.
Great job on the cabbing though.

Christoper, your cabs are, as usual, stunning! Of particular interest to me is your petrified frog eggs cab--I found something nearly identical and would love to know what it is. Unfortunately, the rock is small and I only got two slabettes from it. If you find out what it is, please let me know--and thanks for the motivation to work it.

Chris, these are beautiful!!!! I think I like the last two the best, though. That second to last one looks like what a pudding stone would look like if it were blue! LOL! Great job and love seeing your work!!!
