Deficiencies are actually relative. And excess amount of one nutrients may cause deficiency.
For

e.g. Mn deficiency occurs by providing large quantities of Fe.

Another example is after providing low level of P, plan doesn't require as much N compared to normal or adequate P.

According Liebieg's law of minimum,

once the first limiting factor is eliminated, the second limiting factor will be appeared.

Hope It's useful to you.

All the best.

You see it depends on plants , which mineral they need for their development .

If the plant is deficient in a mineral which is badly needs for its growth but has abundant mineral that it doesn't need then deficiency of that mineral in the plant will curb its growth and it will die.
But if the plant is deficient in mineral that it doesn't need at all then nothing happens to the plant.
