Quartz is the second most common mineral in the Earth's continental
crust. It is mainly composed of Silica or Silica based minerals.
Although Quartz is known by a variety of names, the most important
distinction between types of Quartz is that of macro-crystalline,
individual crystals visible to the unaided eye, and micro-crystalline,
where aggregates of crystals are only visible under high magnification.
There are many forms of Quartz including Chalcedony, Amethyst, Citrine,
and Carnelian which are results of mineral impurities or heat treatments.

Pyrite, or Iron Pyrite, is an Iron sulfide with isometric Crystals that
usually appear as cubes. It is brittle and can break or powder easily.
Its metallic luster and brass yellow hue have earned it the nickname of "fool's
gold" due to many miners mistaken it for the real thing. Ironically,
small quantities of actual gold are sometimes found in Pyrite. It is
the most common of the sulfide minerals and is usually found with other sulfides
or oxides in Quartz veins, sedimentary or metamorphic rocks. |

Petrified Wood is a type of a fossil as it consists of fossil wood
where all the organic materials have been replaced with minerals while
retaining the original structure of the wood. These minerals are most
often Silicates such as Quartz. Other minerals, Manganese, Iron and
Copper, in the water or mud during the petrification process give
Petrified Wood a variety of color ranges: black - Carbon; green/blue -
Copper; red/brown/yellow - Iron. Petrified Wood can preserve the original
structure of the wood in all its detail all the way down to the
microscopic level. Structures such as tree rings and the various tissues
are often observed features. Although Petrified Wood can be found
worldwide, it is rather rare in larger quantities and at times can be
difficult to obtain by the average collector. |

Dalmatian Stone, or orbicular Rhyolite, is an igneous rock that was
formed by lava flows on the Earth's surface. The spots or "orbs"
probably occurred when molten lava reacted with fragments of rock
known as Xenoliths. These stones are light to dark tan in color with
black spots throughout. The nickname "Dalmatian" was given to this
unusual looking mineral because of its resemblance to a Dalmatian
dog's spots.
