Question

HOW ARE MINERALS FORMED? LIST OUT THE DIFFERENT SOURCES OF OCCURANCE OF MINERALS.

Answer 1

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 ...Mode of Occurrence of Minerals: Minerals are generally found in "ores", which is actually an accumulation of any mineral mixed with other elements. To obtain a pure mineral, the it has to be separated from its ore. Minerals generally occur in the cracks, crevices, faults and joints of the igneous and metamorphic rocks.

How are the minerals formed?

Minerals can form on the surface through evaporation of solutions containing dissolved minerals. Minerals can form beneath the surface when dissolved elements and compounds leave a hot water solution or when materials melted in magma/ lava then cools & hardens.

Answer 2

Minerals form when rocks are heated enough that atoms of different elements can move around and join into different molecules. Minerals are deposited from salty water solutions on Earth's surface and underground
