Multicolored jasper found south of Wind River Canyon, Wyoming

The vivid colors in this jasper are splendid to behold!

This piece of multicolored jasper is polished by the wind and sand of the desert.

This is banded ironstone found south of Wind River Canyon, Wyoming.  This specimen has a large amount of hematite and iron in it, and it is very heavy.  The wind and sand has polished part of the stone.

Prime Rib Rocks

I call this a Prime Rib rock!  Just look at the flaming red color marbled with white.

Close up, it looks even more like a good steak!

Similar stone with a darker hue of red.

This is what I call Christmas Stone.  It is more orange in color and has green agate mixed in.  The orange-red color is more of a flint or chert-like stone.

Again, I sharpened the photo and increased contrast to make the image more clarified, but did not alter the color in any way.

Wyoming Jade and Wyoming Green Aventurine

This is a photo someone took of dark olive Wyoming jade.

 This is a photo I took of what I found that I believe is green Aventurine.

Here is another photo of that green Aventurine.

Someone else took a photo of what they describe the stone above to be Wyoming jade.

Again, here is another photo I took of what I believe is green Aventurine that I found.

Any experts out there to help me be sure that what I found is Aventurine and not Jade?

Thanks.
