Identification of a stone

[noideaongems]

Hi,

My partner and I and a friend of ours went out and had a poke around a huge rock wall today and found some stones which we have no idea about. We are hoping that maybe someone would be able to tell us what it possibly is. Thank you in advance and happy hunting.

That first picture seems like a piece of Smokey Quartz or maybe its just dirty?

The first few pics could be quartz, but remind me of gypsum. I am unsure on an ID for those. The last pic in the tin? Looks like some NICE opals!

Looks like selenium to me, a mineral related to gypsum, and as IAMZIM says some nice opals.

Gypsum is the mineral (hydrated calcium sulphate) and selenite (not selenium) is a particular series of crystal forms of that same mineral.
