Minerals are defined as the homogeneous substances that occur naturally under varying conditions, in different types of geological environment. It is broadly classified into two categories, i.e. metallic minerals and non-metallic minerals. Metallic Minerals is composed of metals in their original form, whereas no metals are found in non-metallic minerals.



Minerals possess a definite chemical structure, and their identification is based on their physical properties. The place where minerals are found is called an ore. Ores are the concentration of any mineral with other elements, found in a particular area, in the form of rocks. The extraction of minerals can be done by mining, drilling and quarrying.

This article will help you understand the substantial differences between metallic and non-metallic minerals.
