True. Colonization involves the movement of settlers to a new country with the intention of establishing control over the land and often imposing their culture, beliefs, and customs on the native population.

Yes, much of the drive behind Spain's conquest of the New World was the abundance of precious metals. They took gold from Mexico, Peru had and still has vast amounts of gold and silver, and Argentina is named for its silver (silver is called argentum in Latin).

Private individuals supported the first colonization efforts undertaken by the English in the New World. One of the first settlement attempts by the English was taken on by Sir Walter Raleigh in 1585.
