i'm no rock-gem expert, but i would say emerald or emerald quartz. Where did you find them?

emerald or green quartz. was my first thought.
Do you have access to a magnifying lens?(needed for "hardness test" when viewing small specimens)
Hardness? Streak?

A jeweler might help you or if you have a experienced rock hound in your area to ask.
