I’ll probably leave them in desu. This is the only one worth removing and I like it too much to want to remove it.

Those black ones are probably just tourmaline with quartz

the green ones I can't really tell the diference but tourmalines are green as well, take a look at the shape of the cristal and you'll find out if it is actualy emerald or not

tourmaline on the left, emerald on the right

Found a dendrite in some mudstone last spring. These form when metal-bearing fluids seep into laminae in the rock layers and form a fractal pattern of oxide deposition
