Minerals can appear in both organic and inorganic form.
Minerals mined and extracted from the earth are typically inorganic salts (you can have organic salts), crystals or amorphous matter not containing combined carbon. Carbon by itself is 'mineral' for example diamond, graphite, or charcoal are inorganic (not organic) forms of carbon.
Growing things and carbonaceous chemicals are considered organic. If the minerals are extracted from a plant source and they are considered organic. Organic minerals can also be made by attaching the inorganic mineral to a piece of a plant structure, the most common form being amino acid chelation. An example of this is magnesium amino acid chelate, a type of organic magnesium often found in high quality nutritional supplements.
