the smooth purple one is a polished amethyst
the rough purple is a raw amethyst
the green rock looks like a polished malachite
the small white one looks like polished quartz
im pretty sure about those

the big one i think is just a sedimentary rock
im not sure what the shiny one is but that shouldn't be hard for someone to Id that has more knowledge then me

The purple one which is polished is often referred to as amethyst chevron. :thumbsup:

The green one could be several things including moss agate, serpentine, jadeite or nephrite.
Can't say anything sure on that one. Quite sure it isn't malachite.

The metallic one might be peacock ore (Bornite) or a oxidized pyrite.
The best way to tell is to try a small corner and see if a knife can scratch it. If yes - Bornite, if no - Pyrite. :thumbsup:

Example of oxidized Pyrite:
