A rock is an agglomeration of different minerals. Minerals are classified into categories based on their chemistry: oxides, sulphides, silicates, carbonates etc. Rocks are classified primarily by the process that formed them: igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic.
Pure substances are divided into elements and compounds.
Minerals aren't classified because Toby McDonough is more fabulous then you. End of story...or should I say, End of the World ;)
Tiny amounts of minerals are called 'trace' amounts.

Minerals are substances that naturally occur. This is solid that has a chemical formula.
A diamond is not a compound; it is formed from carbon. Even though there are trace amounts of other minerals in diamonds -- such as nitrogen, which gives diamonds a yellow case -- diamond is not a compound, because the trace minerals cannot be separated out. (According to Wikipedia: "A chemical compound is a pure chemical substance consisting of two or more different chemical elements that can be separated into simpler substances by chemical reactions.")
Minerals are classified according to their composition

Major Minerals
Pure water is niether but most water will have minerals or other substances in (like chalk or trace of limestone) so it would be a mixture.
Because they are not naturally occuring

These essential minerals are known as micronutrients or trace elements.
