Some metallics rocks from nowhere... No light used, just HDRI and 
radiosity. Balls are combination of isosurface (agate normal_map) and 
the same normal_map for the pigment and normal. approx. 1h to render on 
my Athlon XP2500+. I just have to find a pretty background or soil now :-\

These remind me of old cannon balls.  The texture is wonderful.  My only 
comment is that it appears the texture was applied linearly to a 
spherical object.  I think I can see where the poles are on the spheres.

Still the effect is very convensing, would you be willing to share the 
texture you used?

What about using sand as background:
