Great fossils, love the banded rocks and the polished ones. If you're talking about that shiny gold thing, it looks like pyrite or fool's gold(if the crystals are square) and it is a cool sample. You always find good stuff...

The little one is a conglomerate rock - I just thought it was pretty. No, I didn't know what the large red ore looking ones were. The shiny, slick ones I think are all quartz. The pretty banded one I'd like to know what it for sure. You find cool stuff too!
