I have a growing interest in rockhounding and have been out two times in the past year in Northern Ontario, Canada. I have found some really cool specimens that I wasn't hoping to get opinions on.

As I am still researching and learning about different minerals. I think I likely found iron pyrite, quartz and cobalt.

Any feedback or observations is greatly appreciated.

I have many more pictures of finds if interested.

Cheers!

You've some nice pyrites in that as well as some sugary looking quartz, looks like chalcopyrite and there's definitely some bornite present as well with the peacock colors :)
