[object Object],Sample 2- The rock above looks to me like Diorite given its darker appearance and lack of quartz crystals as far as I can see. Typical Diorite composition consists of plagioclase feldspar and amphibole with some biotite mixed in. It has a very distinctive contrasting black and white appearance from the feldspar, which is lighter, and the amphibole, which are darker.

[object Object],Sample 4- At first I believed this rock at the left to be a sedimentary rock because of the obvious layers. As I researched more I realized that the rock might actually be gneiss, which usually consists of altering dark and light layers. Like this rock gneiss is characteristically coarse and usually occurs with granite as a parent rock, which I also found at the same site.
