Hi all. Actually I chickened out bringing them all home in my luggage, and had my wife ship them. They should be here tomorrow. I did put a few of the medium sized ones in my carry on luggage and they ran it thru the x-ray twice before letting it go. I cut into them and I think they are marble.
Kim: That black one is a mystery to me too. That's the way I found it. Alot of the smaller pieces are either quartz(the light colored stones) or serpentine with a goldish shimmer on the outside.
Cher: That huge quartz piece is mostly white with areas of yellow, blue, and brown. I walked by that one three times before finally saying "the hell with it I'll ship these rocks home".
