The origins of the mineral sample were it did not offer proof of life on Mars after all?

The mineral sample that did not offer proof of life on Mars was likely from a non-biological source, such as a geological formation. The absence of evidence for life in the sample doesn't rule out the possibility of life on Mars existing elsewhere, as microbial life might be present in other locations on the planet. Further exploration and analysis are needed to conclusively determine the presence of life on Mars.

What kind of resources are on Mars?

The resources on Mars is estimated based on what we know now, and to date there has been no discovery of significant resources or new undiscovered elements on Mars. Mars seems to be much like earth as far as its mineral deposits, only they are closer to the surface in most cases because of the environment of the planet (its geology, volcanoes and meteor activity).
