The blue and green stone is Azurite *blue* and crystalline Malachite *green*. A very nice specimen. Cant tell really what is in the other stone but it looks like quartz with rather large granule pockets of pyrite or possibly mica.

DD got it right on the first stone. The second stone, at a quick glimpse, looks like breccia.
But the picture isn't quite clear.
