Interesting material - The top stone is interesting... looks like it has Azurite blueberries in it lol.
The second one is a nice piece of Rutilated Quartz.
The others appear to be some sort of heavy metal ore - such as a chalcopyrite or pyrite and Sphalerite etc... Something I'd really hate to grind on.
Nice work!
Jason

Yeah, Jason I did try to make a cab out of one piece of it & it was kind of a mess. It did look kind of cool though, til I threw it in the tumbler & ruined it!!!
