  • 1 answers

Yogita Ingle 6 years, 2 months ago

On the basis of composition, minerals are classified into two main categories:

  • Metallic Minerals
  • Non-metallic minerals

Metallic Minerals: Minerals which contain metals in raw forms are called metallic minerals. Metallic minerals are further classified into ferrous and non-ferrous minerals.

  • Ferrous Minerals: Minerals which contain iron are called ferrous minerals, e.g. iron ore, manganese and chromite.
  • Non-ferrous Minerals: Minerals which do not contain iron are called non-ferrous minerals, e.g. bauxite, tin, copper, gold, etc.

Non-metallic Minerals: Minerals which do not contain metals are called non-metallic minerals, e.g. limestone, mica, coal, petroleum, etc.
