The top tan-colored one appears to be agate, but the other one I would pass as being a mix of onyx and jade... The bottom one, I have no idea. Sorry.

Arrow Row One:
Agate/Jasper
Arrow Row Two:
Rhodonite
Arrow Row Three:
Chloromelanite/Jadeite

Now for the other rows (top to bottom):
Obsidian "Flower"
Rhodochrosite
Howlite
Onyx
Moss Agate or possible Blood Stone (because the image is milky looking)

I thought the top one had some tigers eye in it.
The others I have no clues.

rule number one.. taught in any into to physical geology class... you cannot, shouldn't, will not idenitfy minerals/rocks with any sort of certainty based on color alone.
You must hold them in your hand, scratch them, sniff, them, lick them if need be..but what you are asking is not really possible
