Thanks Oidium45 but if it’s copper why isn’t it going green, I also left it sitting in vinger and salt for a week and there was no sign of tarnish at all.

Odd, could have other stuff in it. Silver, gold etc... But sure looks like copper to me. I suppose it could just be really low quality gold with lots of impurities :-/

Various AZ Desert Rocks

Hi there, newbie here. Need help identifying these. Found in Mohave County AZ, mostly in washes. I'm assuming 3 is mineralized quartz and 4 is quartz with pyrite. I have a bunch of that stuff, crushed a few up and panned but no gold :( 2, 5, and 6 also a variant of quartz? Sorry so many rocks and photos. Thanks for looking!

Nice finds, #13 (potato shaped one) is interesting with the mica stacks protruding from it, and #6 at the lower right has an interesting elongated metallic feature. Looks like mostly Quartz with mica in these rocks.
