    Minerals are naturally occurring inorganic solids that have a definite chemical composition made up of particular chemical elements. The document expresses interest in learning more about types of rocks, Earth's weathering processes, the origin of mineral resources, the origin of the solar system, characteristics necessary to support life on Earth, geologic surface and interior processes, evidence of continental drift, ocean basin evolution, and subdivisions of geologic time.

    More About Types of Rocks

    Minerals are naturally occurring


    They are not made by humans
    Minerals are inorganic
    They have never been alive and are not made
    up from plants or animals
    Minerals are solids
    They are not liquids (like water), or gases (like
    the air around you)

    Earth's weather
    Minerals have a definite chemical
    composition
    Each one is made of a particular mix of
    chemical elements

    Sources of metals and other mineral


    resources

    Origin of the Solar System


    Characteristics of Earth that are
    necessary to support life
    Geologic processes that occur on the
    surface of the Earth
    Geologic processes that occur within the
    Earth
    Evidence that support continental drift
    Structure and evolution of ocean basins
