What is a solid nonliving material of earths crust with a distinct composition?
A mineral is a solid, nonliving material that makes up the Earth's crust and has a distinct chemical composition. Minerals are naturally occurring and are typically formed through geological processes over time.
What mineral is stable at earths surface?
Quartz is a mineral that is stable at Earth's surface due to its chemical composition and resistance to weathering processes.
What is is The layer of rock and mineral fragments produced by weathering and covering nearly all of earths land surface called?
The layer of rock and mineral fragments produced by weathering and covering nearly all of Earth's land surface is called regolith. Regolith is made up of various sizes of rock and mineral particles that result from the breakdown of bedrock over time due to weathering processes.

What is a hard shiny material found in Earths ground called?
That would be a mineral such as quartz, diamond, or pyrite. Minerals are naturally occurring inorganic substances with a definite chemical composition and ordered atomic structure.
What is the material at earths surface called?
Molten rock material on Earth's surface is called lava. When under Earth's surface it's called magma
What is the common mineral group in Earths crust?

What are some characteristics of earths oceans?
what are three characteristics of earth's ocean
What are some of the earths characteristics?
One of the characteristics are that it is the only planet that humans can survive on.
Is the studies of fossils called palaeontology?
Yes, Paleontology (also spelt Palaeontology) is the study of earths natural history, through fossil and mineral evidence.
