Granite is a mineral, and is not assigned status as a metal or nonmetal. The metal/nonmetal characteristic is usually assigned to a chemical element rather than to chemical compounds or, as is the case with granite, groups of these compounds.
There will be some metals in all granite. Though this mineral is largly made of silicon dioxide (SiO2), a number of metal compounds will be present in small amounts within the crystaline structure. Aluminum, potassium, sodium, iron and other metals, and even traces of uranium, can be found in granite.
No. Granite is intrusive igneous felsic rock composed of a variety of minerals including quartz, mica, and feldspar.
No. Granite is a heterogeneous mixture.
No. First of all, granite is a rock, not a mineral, so the term doesn't really apply. Second, the minerals that make up granite (quartz, feldspars, micas, and hornblende) are silicates.
Niether. Granite is a rock, not a mineral. The minerals found in granite are non-metallic.
No. Granite is a mixture of compounds. Those compounds contain metals, nonmetals, and metalloids.
Granite is a hetrogeneous mixture.
Yes.
Pumice is nonmetallic.
Diamond is not an element. It is a form of carbon, and carbon is nonmetallic.
the nonmetallic elements they contain or their physical and chemical propertiesfarming, construction and manufacturing
magnetite
Sulfur
1. Granite is a course-grained intrusive silicic igneous rock, it is a nonmetallic resource. Therefore they are not malleable nor a conductor. Even though granite contains metal ions, the minerals in granite contain relatively little metal, so it would cost more to separate the metal from the granite.

Nonmetallic
Pumice is nonmetallic.
nonmetallic
I think its nonmetallic as it is glass
Calcite is a compound and therefore cannot be classified as a metal or nonmetal.
what are two uses of nonmetallic mineral resources
There are no "nonmetallic metals", all metals are metallic by definition.
Diamond is not an element. It is a form of carbon, and carbon is nonmetallic.
the nonmetallic elaments are on the right side of the periodic table
