Why are brick steel and glass not classified as minerals?
They are not naturally occurring
Although cement brick steel glass all come from substances found in earths crust they are not classified as minerals because?
they are not naturally occurring inorganic solids with a crystalline structure. Minerals must have a distinct chemical composition and structure, whereas cement, brick, steel, and glass are man-made products that do not meet all the criteria to be classified as minerals.
Why does brick steel and glass all come from substance found in earths crust but they are not classified as minerals?
Brick, steel, and glass are not classified as minerals because they are man-made, processed materials that do not occur naturally in the Earth's crust in their current form. While they may be made from substances found in the Earth's crust (such as clay for brick, iron ore for steel, and silica for glass), the way these materials are extracted, refined, and processed alters their mineral composition. Minerals are naturally occurring inorganic solids with a specific chemical composition and crystal structure.

How are rocks related to minerals What is the difference in how rocks and minerals are classified?
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.
What three minerals are metal and scrach glass?
The three minerals that are metals and can scratch glass are iron pyrite (pyrite), hematite, and magnetite. These minerals have a high hardness level, allowing them to scratch glass and show metallic luster.
Are all minerals metals?
No some like brass are not classified as minerals.
Glass is classified as?
an insulator
