many people consider minerals are not renewable resources, yes it is, but actually minerals also consider renewable. why??? minerals can take thousands of years to be renewed again since it is formed by the remains of dead living organisms and have taken thousands of years to be formed, so by that if minerals are used it would take thousands of years to renew it's self. also that make it nonrenewable resource because as you know take thousands of years to be used again
