Question
What are the features of minerals?
✓
Answer
Minerals have certain features:
They are either organic like fossil fuels or inorganic like mica, limestone, etc.
There is an inverse relationship iri quality and quantity of minerals i.e., good quality minerals are less in quantity as compared to low quality minerals.
They contain either iron like iron ore or don’t have iron content like copper, bauxite, etc.
These minerals take long time to develop geologically and they cannot be replenished immediately at the time of need.
All minerals are exhaustible over time. None of the minerals is a renewable source but many of them can be recycled and re-used.
