Rock-forming minerals 1. Silicates - are minerals which consist of silicon and oxygen with some metals or nonmetals. Some rocks which have these minerals are granite, sandstone, basalt, gneiss and quartzite. 2. Carbonates - are minerals which consist of carbon, oxygen and some other elements. Rocks in which these minerals are found include marble, limestone and dolomite. 3. Oxides - are minerals which consist of oxygen and some other elements. They are found in rocks such as sandstone and shale. Although there are about 3000 different minerals found on Earth, there are only very few of them which form rocks.
Minerals that make up moon rocks are the same minerals that are found on Earth. Some moon rocks have minerals that combine to form kinds of rocks that are not found on Earth. BlueStar(:
Rocks are composed of differing combinations of thousands of naturally occurring minerals--or pieces of other rock particles cemented together--or in some cases, lithified organic matter.All rocks are composed of some form of minerals. The exact type of rock and their specific appearance is determined by the elements that are combined with these minerals.
Rocks have different colors because some rocks contain different minerals. the rocks
Yes,rocks are mixtures of minerals.They are combined with other mixtures of minerals.
some minerals are mica, fledspar, and rocks are marble, shale ,slate,granite etc.

Crystals and minerals, but not fossils, as the intense pressure would have destroyed them (except in some rare contact metamorphic rocks).
Minerals are in rocks. When you break a rock a mineral will be found in it. Also the uglier the rock is the prettier the mineral will be. Some rocks are found under the ground. That is where minerals are and about.
How minerals can form some rocks, the color, and texture
Canada's largest deposits of sedimentary rocks can be found in Alberta and Saskatchewan (the Great Plains area). Some of the minerals found inside of sedimentary rock include coal, oil, natural gas, and potash.
Yes. All rocks, apart from coal and some glassy volcanic rocks, contain minerals.

Geologist
Rocks are not minerals. They are composed on one or more minerals. For example granite is composed primarily of the minerals quartz, potassium feldspar, and albite. There are some rocks, however, that are composed of substances that aren't minerals. Examples include coal, which is mostly organic, and glassy rocks such as obsidian, pumice, and some varieties of tuff.
Yes. Rocks are defined as combinations of minerals. The only exception to this would be some volcanic rocks that are composed mostly of glass.
