Soak it in iron out or pool acid to remove Huron varnish to see true colors.

not so sure about the granite. as it happens, it has been soaking in iron out for a while. boy was it stained. Still is, but I can see the underlying colors are light to dark green (like the blue green of some basalt)and micro fine grained, and the seams are either clear or white quartz stuff. looks like a brecciated layered argillite with the silt layers being light and dark green. Then that seems to have been infilled with thick clear silica which picked up the staining. .

You have the most complicated geology snowmom. The rocks you post keep me amused because they are unexplainable LOL.
Gotta look at them, they are always unexplainable(I should add) from my limited geo background.
None the less beautiful. Hard to say if they are even from this planet or recreated by forces of meteor impact. Which is amusing too.
Keep em coming.
