Answer 2

Answer:

The four main categories of mineral formation are: (1) igneous, or magmatic, in which minerals crystallize from a melt.

(2) sedimentary, in which minerals are the result of sedimentation, a process whose raw materials are particles from other rocks that have undergone weathering or erosion.

(3) metamorphic, in which new minerals form at the expense of earlier ones owing to the effects of changing—usually increasing—temperature or pressure or both on some existing rock type.

(4) hydrothermal, in which minerals are chemically precipitated from hot solutions within Earth.
