Your question should be "Are fossils like minerals?"
See, a fossil is the skeleton of an animal that was compressed under ground. In the right conditions, the bones can be replaced - or filed - with minerals that leech out of the surround rocks and into the cavity left by the fossil.
To answer your actual question more simply, they both come out of the ground.
