#2 has the look of Unakite to it, or at least part of it:)

#2 looks like maybe Marston Ranch replacement wood or maybe one of the many generic types of Oregon seam "jagget". (sounds cooler than "jasp-agate", no?) I've seen it before. #3 is almost definitely Coprolite or maybe a piece of "Grape Agate" from Utah. I lean heavily (the boy needs to exercise more - haha!) toward Coprolite. #5 could be a shard of Amethyst Lace Agate. #6 is a moss agate - probably something like Bloody Basin, Powell Butte, or a "mushy" Maury Mountain.
#1 and #4 might be more recognizable if you wetted them. #1 might be a piece of apatite but can't see it well enough. C-ya! Rick

Nah, maybe #1 is something like dumitorite (spelling!) or lepidolite? Doesn't have the cracky, Voronoi-like pattern macro crystal of Apatite... Arguing with myself, now! :-) Rick
