Back with more mysteries.... Nephrite? Shown wet - I can't decide if this is a mahogany obsidian or some kind of jasper because of the quartz in there.

The second one is definitely not Mahogany Obsidian. Some kind of jasper I would think.

Photos with slabs shown wet would help show their colors better.

The green one without the streaks looks to be nephrite jade. The last streaky green and black one could be quartzite of some sort.

Top three photos look like nephrite to me.

Thank you all! The last green one I've asked about before; its a great mystery rock if nothing else.
Thank you all for your input, and confirming my thoughts. Now to price it, that's another story.
