Best Answer

A rock is made out of many different minerals. A mineral is a building block that makes up rocks. A rock is like a Pizza, and the minerals that make up this 'rock pizza' are things like the crust, the sauce, the pepperoni, and the cheese. Cheese alone does not make pizza, much like one mineral will not make a rock.
