What is a silicate mineral--malachite pyrite olivine and diamond?
Olivine is a silicate mineral. Diamond is an elemental mineral. Pyrite is a sulfide mineral. Malachite is a carbonate mineral.
Which is a silicate mineral malachite pyrte olivine diamond?
Malachite is copper carbonate hydroxide. Diamond is carbon. Pyrite Is iron sulphide. Olivine is magnesium iron silicate.
Is a diamond a silicate or non siliicate mineral?

Is agate a silicate or non silicate mineral?
It's composition can be Fe3 O4, or FeFe2 O4, depending if it's ferric or ferrous. There is no silicon in its composition, so it's a nonsilicate, mafic mineralalso a diamond is the allotrope carbon of where the carbon atoms are arranged in the specific type of cubic lattice called diamond cubic. Diamond is an optically isotropic crystal that is transparent to opaque. I might be wrong though!
