Compounds, or minerals. The most common is the sodium chloride found in sea water. They are too reactive to be found as free elements.
minerals are only be found in nature?
Gold and silver are commonly found as nearly pure metals (solids) in nature. Sulfur - while often found in compounds in nature is also often mined as a solid (usually by first melting it and pumping the liquid to the surface). Pure solid sulfur is the infamous "brimstone" of the Bible. Pure solid carbon is also found in nature - as graphite and diamonds. Arsenic occurs in many minerals, usually in combination with sulfur and metals, but also as a pure elemental crystal.
Hydrogen has the lowest atomic number, and is not found in nature as individual atoms, but is found in nature as the diatomic molecule, H2.
first, they are extremely stable, usually, and second, they are typically found in nature frequently.
In the nature the majority of chemical elements are found as compounds.
Bohrium is an artificial element.
Rutherfordium is an artificial chemical element.
Calcium is never found in its elemental form in nature.
In nature, wolves and bears.
Chemically reactive.
Platinum usually exists uncombined in nature or alloyed with iridium.
Zinc is usually combined with other elements.

The most stable of any element is found free in nature. Sometimes isotopes are also found along with the most stable of an element. Isotopes usually have short half life.
In organic chemistry, an allothreonine is one of two stereoisomers of threonine which are not usually found in nature.
