2. MINERALS
• Homogenous naturally occurring
substance with a definable internal
structure.

3. Where are minerals found?
• Minerals are usually found in “ores”.
• ORES: An ore is a type of rock that
found contain sufficient minerals with
important elements including metals
that can be economically extracted
from the rock. The ores are
extracted from mining; these are
then refined to extracts the valuable
elements.

8. Minerals
Metals
Ferrous
Non-
Ferrous Precious
Non-
Metals
e.g.
mica,salt,pot
ash
Energy
Minerals
Coal,
petroleum,
natural gas

9. • Containing iron e.g. iron,
manganese, nickel cobalt etc.Ferrous
• Does not containing iron e.g.
copper, lead, bauxite etc.Non-ferrous
• Precious minerals includes:
Gold, silver, platinum etc.Precious

11. Non-Metallic Minerals:
• Non-Metallic
minerals includes
mica, sulfur,
graphite, limestone,
marble and
sandstone etc.
Energy Mineral:
• Energy Mineral
includes coal,
petroleum, natural
gas etc.

12. Energy Resources
• Energy is required for all the activities. It is
needed to cook, to provide light and heat, to
drive vehicle, to propel machinery in
industries.
• Energy can be generated from fuels, petroleum
and coal and these are all minerals of different
kinds. Natural gas is also one of the energy
resources.

13. Types of energy resources:
• Conventional energy sources that
include coal, firewood, cattle dunk cake,
petroleum and natural gas etc.
• Non-conventional energy sources that
include, geothermal, solar, tidal, wind,
biogas and atomic energy.
• All the conventional sources are
minerals so that minerals act as energy
sources.
