Quick look.....pics took too long to download plus some were blurry.

Some banded agates and chalcedony for sure.

Murad.... you can help yourself identify these rocks. I know you are new here but
it really helps if you know how to do some of the basics... such as hardness tests, etc.

Look up a post below that was posted by Moesia entitled "Rocks and Minerals."

It gives you some information that will be of help to you.

Good luck!

By the way, I really like #3. I'd cut, shape and polish that one for a nice necklace.

As mentioned all are chalcedony and agates, no.1 picture looks like opal, you should try to crack that one and see what is inside, if you don't mind shattering the rock. They are all not worth much but it seams you are close to some terrain where there might be some opals of more value. Those are not found in river beds.

Good luck.

Opal? That would be interesting.
