I would assume it would be igneous due to the massive amounts of magma in the earth's crust.
Bauxite's chemical formula ends with Oxygen, (Al2O32H2O) making it an oxide.
1. Their oxides are base (alkaline) forming with water.2. The high amounts of the most common elements in this group, Mg and Ca, are found in rocky earth crust and sediments. (Eg. slack lime Ca(OH)2, carbonate rocks, magnesite).Another explanation of 'earth' is this:3. These oxides melt at such high temperature that they remain solids ("earths") in fires (Eg. burned lime CaO).Added:The alkaline earth metals are a series of elements comprising Group 2 (IUPAC style) (Group IIA) of the Periodic Table:beryllium (Be), magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), strontium (Sr), barium (Ba) and radium (Ra).
Zeolite is actually not a mineral, but the name of a large group of minerals, that are silicates with framework structures containing open cavities in the form of channels and cages. This framework makes them excellent filters with a multitude of uses. A few common zeolite minerals are analcime, chabazite, and heulandite. Zeolites of the World by Tschernich is the best reference on these minerals.
Galena is a mineral, lead suphide (PbS), and as such, it is in the group of sulfide minerals. Links can be found below to check facts and learn more.
These elements are part of the makeup of 99% of all minerals on Earth.

Silicate is the mineral group in the Earth's crust. This contains quartz, feldspars, and micas.

silicate mineral group, which includes minerals such as quartz, feldspar, mica, and olivine. These minerals make up about 90% of the Earth's crust and are the building blocks of most rocks.

The most common mineral group in Earth's crust is the silicate mineral group. Silicates are composed of silicon and oxygen atoms, along with other elements like aluminum, iron, magnesium, and calcium. They make up about 90% of the Earth's crust.
