Technically, not all minerals form in the earth. Minerals can also form inside hollow rocks as geodes, or they can form on the surface through evaporation of solutions ( mixture of one substance dissolved in another.)
Some are called Bananas for me
There are four ways that minerals can be formed:From molten rockFrom solutionWithin living cellsBy recrystallization.The mineral halite and some minerals form when saltwater evaporates. They also occur on or inside the earth with no input from humans.

They all do. This is a scientific definition of a mineral: A mineral is a naturally occurring chemical compound, usually of crystalline form and abiogenic in origin.
Germanium is a naturally occurring element, but does not occur in pure form on the Earth (only in compounds).

it is in the form of solid because it makes earth crust
Thallium, discovered in 1861, does occur naturally, but not in its pure form.
No. Magnesium is not a rock; it is a metallic element. It is present in some of the minerals found in igneous rocks. It does not occur naturally in its elemental form.

No, it does not exist naturally in its pure form. Itexists in the combined form.
