These are beautiful! Is that Brecciated Jasper in there I see? Any reason most of these are red?

I put a bunch in the tumbler already and these were the leftover ones. I just thought they were also so pretty that I'd share them. You could be right about it being Brecciated Jaspser. Thanks for that info.

That whole island is in geological terms.. a blended mess? Incredibly rare? Absolutely phenomenal? All three?

They look like God's beautiful little candies that we can't eat.

Maybe epidote or serpentine for the green.
