Welcome to Tnet from Toronto! 
If you could give us an idea of what part of the world these rocks came from, that would help.
You also might want to consider re-posting your question & pics here... Geological Forums

First one looks like a quartzite pebble that split open; second one is hard to see but maybe a chert of some type, last one is a small tigers eye sphere / marble (tigers eye is a also a type of quartzite). So they are probably all mostly SiO2 is one arrangement or the other.

I see crinoid fossils in the second one so it's limestone or chert. Gary
