Best Answer

Nonrenewable resources generally fall into the category of things that were here before Humans were. The most common examples are sources of energy (fossil fuels) and metals.

  1. Oil
  2. Coal
  3. Natural gas
  4. Antimony
  5. Indium
  6. Silver
  7. Uranium
  8. Gold

The related link to a BBC article give a projected timeline for depleting these plus the depletion of various environmental components, including land for agriculture, coral reefs and rain forests. Of course, the extinction of many species of plants and animals may or may not be considered a "resource," but that happens pretty much every day.
