Any of the fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) is a non renewable source of energy.

Any resource for which there is a finite or limited supply. Fossil fuels do not generate fast enough to meet our demand and use, because it takes millions of years to naturally form more.
the examples are coal ,oil ,gas and copper
coal and oil
Anything that takes more than a lifetime to replenish : coal, oil.
Natural Resources that are used up more quickly than they can be replaced are nonrenewable resources. Earths supply of nonrenewable resources are limited . You use nonrenewable resources when you take home groceries in plastic bags, paint a wall, or travel by car. plastic, paints, and gasoline are made from important nonrenewable resources called petroleum, or oil, petroleum is formed mostly from the remains of microscopic marine organisms buried in the earths crust. It is nonrenewable because it takes hundreds of millions of years for it to form.
Non renewable energy is anything that will eventually run out, for example coal, gas, all sorts of fossil fuels
A couple examples of non-renewable ressources are Fossil fuels (such as coal, petroleum and natural gas) and nuclear power (uranium) are examples.

AnswerAnything that's mined from the Earth.

In the field of energy, that includes:

*coal

*lignite

*oil

*natural gas

*shale oil

*methane (cow wiener because they eat so much grass, no joke, ask your science teachers or such because it is true, the grass causes flatulent digestion)

I Think Coal.
