The pyrite doesn't seem right, it's fools gold, and that doesnt look gold at all.

Fluorine

I don't know why some mineral don't looks good in photos.
Maybe because they are shiny.
With flash all photos of minerals turn into a white light and without it don't looks good.

Try taking it without flashlight then?
I never liked flashlights much. They affect all my photos. I had to turn them off manually each time I turn on my camera, because it doesn't remember my flashlight settings.

Information about minerals:(info from my mind)
Red Jasper
![Image](http://firegames.webege.com/minerals/r2.png)
Red Jasper is a variety of quartz cryptocrystalline called chalcedony, it's color is from impurities of hematite (iron oxide).
Informations about any jasper(not red):(info from wikipedia)
Jasper, a form of chalcedony,[1] is an opaque,[2] impure variety of silica, usually red, yellow, brown or green in color. Blue is rare. This mineral breaks with a smooth surface, and is used for ornamentation or as a gemstone. It can be highly polished and is used for vases, seals, and at one time for snuff boxes. When the colors are in stripes or bands, it is called striped or banded jasper. Jaspilite is a banded iron formation rock that often has distinctive bands of jasper. Jasper is basically chert which owes its red color to iron(III) inclusions. The specific gravity of jasper is typically 2.5 to 2.9.[3] The jasper is also a stone in the Jewish High Priest's breastplate, described in Exodus 28.
