Fossil fuels are created by the decomposition of plant (coal) and animal (oil) matter over a very long period of time. Fossils are preserved as matter builds up. I don't know much about the process.

Minerals probably originated when the earth was created, but are cycled in the magma and cooling of lava on the earth's surface.
