Cool rocks with a neat note attached

[teachbecca]

Thought you may enjoy seeing these & also might get some advice about which rock is which? Thanks in advance! The note was torn up so I taped it back together the best I could. This is what I think it says :
Olive wood Jerusalem
Petrified wood Saharan desert
Cairo Egypt

Forgot to say I picked these up at a sale. I didn’t collect them personally.

Cool Keepers...!

The pictures are kind of dark for some reason......

This was in the box too . Looks like glass but doesn’t feel like it.

You look to have picked up a nice collection there. Your last post is unfortunately a piece of glass. But you have some good stuff in the first post. I'm not sure what to make of pic 1, it looks like a couple of different calacites, pic 2 is a chalcedony nodule, pic 3 the blocky bit is a concretion that is in situ and has been cut in half and the long bit below it might possibly be a bit of petrified wood, pic 4 are concretions, pic 5 is a nice variety of calcites~ dog tooth spar, blocky bits, pic 6 is a geode.
In the 3rd post I'll only comment on pic 3 as the others are various forms of mixed quartz. Pic 3 shows nice quartz crystals and pyrites.
Handsome collection there.

Thank you soooo much! I am excited to know all the names of these now! I did take a couple clearer pics of some! Thanks again!!
I really wanted the glass to be Libyan glass but oh well.... I’m enjoying the rest just the same! 😊

I'm happy you enjoy it, they are some nice specimens. As to the first three pics in your last post, another calacite formation and with nice color. I thought about Libyan glass as well, a tektite, but the coloration an clarity are wrong and it lacks any definition as a tektite. Even if it were broken out of a tektite it would have had to be a very large one and that would have destroyed its value. Have fun and thanks for sharing
