[QUOTE="Metamorphic, post: 120919, member: 3682"] Welcome to PA Dirtgirl, its always a difficult job from pic's alone as lots of clues cant be shared such as weight (specific gravity), the general feel and hardness of the rock etc. The lads are likely correct on the first two and as for the others at a guess, the third looks like some sort of Sedimentary Conglomerate or perhaps even a Mica Schist? The fourth pic looks to be igneous, and maybe a piece of Basalt, Biotite or similar dark colored, fine grain? Take them along to the local museum and maybe someone can help with a positive ID. Regards ;) [/QUOTE]
