Answer:
minerals are vital for everyday life. it is used in variety of purposes from a pin to a large building or big ship.
minerals are not abundant in nature . they are available in a limited quantity and can get depleted and exhausted easily.
the geological processes required for the replenishment of minerals is very slow and the population is increasing at a faster rate . so there is an imbalance which results in acute shortage of minerals .
they are valuable in nature so as it is available at a lower quantity due to rapid and non-sustainable way the cost of minerals become more and the extraction costs also tend to increase and also decrease in quality of minerals.
therefore , conservation of minerals is necessary

recycling of minerals so that it can be reused and also the usage of scrap ensures cleaner environment with less wastage
better mining methods also helps to reduce wastage.
