Yes, metallic minerals are a resource that humans cannot replace in nature. It takes nature many hundreds of thousands of years to compile mineral deposits and when those minerals are removed, humans can't replace them. That is why it's so important to recycle mineral products such as metals when their usefulness has been completed.
