A few minerals have organic origins: - Calcite/aragonite shells of some marineinvertebrates. - Apatite makes up a portion of teeth and bones of vertebrates. - Pyrite formed in shale and coal beds is produced by sulfate-reducing bacteria. • Sugar is a natural organic (plant) crystallinehomogeneous solid with a specific chemical composition and distinct atomic structure, but is not mineral
Wood is an organic matter and there for not a mineral. Although some organic life forms can produce minerals.
No. Coal is not a mineral for two reasons: it lacks a crystal structure and it is organic.
No, it's not an organic product, it's a mineral, calcium sulphate dihydrate.
A mineral must follow a certain criteria. It has to be naturally occurring, generally inorganic homogeneous solid with a crystalline structure and a definite (but not fixed) chemical composition. Water cannot be a mineral because it is a liquid. Honey cannot be a mineral because it is a liquid and is organic Oxygen cannot be a mineral because it is a gas. Teeth cannot be a mineral they are organic. Ice, however, can be a mineral if it is formed naturally. Ice forming on your windshield is a mineral but ice from an ice cube tray is not a mineral.
The process you’re describing is known as mineralization, where organic material is dissolved by mineral-laden water, leading to the replacement of organic cells with minerals. This process often occurs in the formation of fossils, where minerals infiltrate and replace the organic components over time. The resulting mineralized structure retains the original shape but is composed of minerals instead of organic material.
Coal is not a mineral. A mineral is a solid non-organic substance. Coal is an organic substance.
An organic mineral is of biogenic origin; for example petroleum can be considered an organic liquid mineral. For other organic minerals see the link below.
== == Coal is very close to being a mineral but since it is organic (made from remains and organic substances) it does not qualify.

no because a mineral must be inorganic. a shell is organic.

Hydrochloric acid is a mineral acid, not organic. It is a strong acid produced by inorganic reactions involving hydrogen and chlorine atoms.
In chemistry organic means it is made or contains carbon.
