The 2nd rock doesn't appear to be petrified wood, but we would need a view of the ends to get any real idea's. The translucent area may be agate & any "orange" material may be iron oxide deposits (rust) from either iron content in the rock near the surface or from the soil it was in.

Accomplishing the impossible means only that the boss will add it to your regular duties.

to me that last one does look like petrified wood I find many like that here but other views like the ends and other side will help to be sure...
