Help identify

[artscary]

Hello,
I am a newbie to rocks and minerals. I am an artist and I have starting collecting rocks that I found or bought at the bargain bin at the mineral shop to sand and polish and use in jewelry. I need help properly identifying these pieces. Any information that would be interesting to a buyer of jewelry made from these stones would be very helpful. Such as: common name, scientific name, believed "mystical" properties, rarity, or any other interesting info. Thanks so much!!
