Oil is a concentrated by-product from the decay of ancient plant and animal remains on the ocean floor and is considered a natural resource but not a mineral. Coal deposits are composed of the remains of mostly plant life that has undergone sedimentation and lithification. It is not considered a mineral, but a sedimentary rock.
