JustRockhoundinAround Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Alright, these are from an area I frequent. I get all sorts of different kinds depending on how high or low I search. I’ve taken some to a professor around me and he said the red material is hematite. I’ll add them in the comments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fossilcrazy Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 I think we are looking at Liesegang zones, from minerals penetrating cracks in porous rock. The orange-red is probably Iron oxides migrating. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herb Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 the top ones look like breccia or conglomerate to me. Bottom possibly a gastropod.
