Found while visiting my aunt at the river in Texas. I don't think I will be able to take pics showing all the beautiful colors. Help ID if you can :)

Look all the way at top for photos of banded rock with blue, red, purple, tan. Would love to know what it is :)

Look like Agate to me. You scored on those colors.

Agate is translucent.

I'm thinking a rock of some kind, rather then a mineral.
Can you show a freshly broken surface? Thinking in the line's of sandstone or related.

Exception is the green one with red dots, "blood stone"? (which is a kind of chalcedony)

Eu citzen is right, it is blood stone. My birth stone.
