most rocks from what i know contain minerals especially sedimentary rocks.
and don't all rocks eventually become sedimentary rocks so really don't they all contain minerals to some extent :)
hope it helped (by the way i am only a gcse student)

∙ 12y agoThere are no rocks that don't contain minerals, as rocks are composed of minerals or mineral-like substances. Even substances like coal and obsidian are formed from minerals in organic or volcanic processes.

Ores are mineral deposits that contain metals in concentrated form. Rocks can also contain minerals, but not all rocks are considered to be minerals. Metals are elements that are typically extracted from ores through mining and processing.
Minerals and rocks are different. Minerals are the building blocks of rocks and consist of one type of substance. Rocks, on the other hand, can be composed of a mixture of minerals.
minerals
Rocks are made up of minerals, which are naturally occurring inorganic substances with a specific chemical composition and crystalline structure. Minerals are the building blocks of rocks and determine their physical and chemical properties. Rocks can contain one type of mineral (such as limestone) or a variety of different minerals (such as granite).
Not all rocks are made of minerals. Rocks can be composed of minerals or can be made up of organic materials like shells, fossils, or volcanic glass. Some rocks, like coal or obsidian, do not contain minerals but are still considered rocks.
Rocks contain minerals in them and minerals are just the minerals themselves.
Rocks that contain minerals are called mineral rocks. Minerals are naturally occurring substances that have a specific chemical composition and crystalline structure. These minerals come together to form rocks through various geological processes.
All rocks contain the same thing. They all contain minerals, and some of these minerals are inorganic and crystalline, among others
Rocks and Minerals that contain elements extracted through mining are called Ores. The rocks that contain the minerals are called ores, The minerals that they contain are called ore minerals, and are extracted to be processed in order to recover whatever element it is that is being mined.
No, rocks are at least two kinds of minerals.
Igneous Rocks
Minerals contain one or many types of minerals (copper, gold, zinc) Rocks contain different types of minerals (Granite- Feldspar, Quartz, Mica, Hornblende)
Yes. All rocks, apart from coal and some glassy volcanic rocks, contain minerals.
Rocks contain the minerals we use to create everything we make.
yes
No. they dont
