Please let me know what you figure this may be

Any ideas what these could be? Or if there's any value in them?

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.
