Id say quartz and jasper. The purple might be Am. which is in the quartz family.

The green and the pink one could be beryl try a hardness test using the clear one (quartz) hardness 7 if it scratches the green/pink they are less than or equal to and if the green or pink scratch the clear most likely beryl morganite (pink)/ aquamarine - emerald (green)

purple one is amethyst....pink one is rose quartz....clear one is a quartz crystal...green one is the color of fluorite but the crystal shape is wrong...hard to day on that one for me....can't really make out the other, looks to be clam shell shaped?...the brown one are a form of jasper of similar stone (chalcedony).
