What are three non silicate minerals that are commonly found in rocks?
Relatively common nonsilicate groups include; Carbonates - such as chalk & limestone or as the matrix/cement in certain sandstones. Halides - potassium, chlorides and sodium minerals forming potashes, salts and evaporation deposits. Oxides - such as banded iron formations.
What do the three major groups of rocks have in common?
The three major groups of rocks have several things in common. The mineral composition is the same and this is why they will all turn into each other at some point.
