A Lot Of Red Rocks, All Quartz? Anything Else?

[Antje]

Thanks in advance! I'm a little useless identifying anything from books- even the good books tend to have photos which look a lot different from each other. For whatever reason an awful lot of the rocks here are red but not at all alike. No worries, am expecting ' quartz '- so far it's what seems to be the case. Pretty sure we have agate and jasper ( not red ) otherwise we're still trying to figure out all the rocks. Pretty fun just wish we were better at it!

Very interesting specimens. I like the red tones. Definitely look like varieties of cryptocrystalline Quartz. I wouldn't call them Jasper, per se; as these specimens appear to have a translucency to them. Photo number 8 has distinct macrocrystalline crystals (visible to the naked eye). I like them! -Luke
