Mineral Resources

What is the difference between metallic and nonmetallic  mineral resources? Please give an example of each.

Metallic resources are medal. Nonmetallic resources are not metal.

Example of metallic- A tin can.

Example of nonmetallic- A tree.

Evan L said...

The difference is that metallic has metal in it and the nonmetallic has no metal in it.

Casey K said...

. Non-metallic minerals are those which do not yield new products on melting

Metallic mineral re those minerals which can be melted to obtain new products

Mya N said...

Metallic is tin and medal. Nonmetallic is not made of metal like a tree!

Rylan N said...

Non metallic is something without metal in it like a tree. Metallic have metal in them like copper

Brendan S said...

Metallic is tin and medal, Nonmetallic is not made of metal.

Taylor J said...

Metallic is medal and Nonmetallic means it's not metal.

Wyatt R said...

The difference between metallic and non-metallic is that metallic is metal and that non-metallic isn't metal. For example:

Metallic) Iron

Non-metallic) Salt

Samantha L said...

Metallic is medal and Nonmetallic means it's not metal.

Leslie K said...

A metallic mineral resources is a material that has mineral deposits. Example a soda can. A nonmetallic mineral resource is a materal that is not used as fuel or other minerals. example is salt.

metallic can be broken down.where nonmetallic can not

Griffin M said...

Metallic materials are rich in minerals such as iron and they have metal in them and non-metallic don't have metal but it has minerals, not as much as metallic materials.

Katie N. said...

Metallic minerals have Iron and medal, and Non-Metallic doesn't

Evan L said...

I take that back, Non metallic can not be made into anew product. Metalic can be melted to make new products.

Tyler J said...

the metallic has metal and nonmetallic has no metal

Gareth B said...

Metallic recourses are like aluminum and tin. Nonmetallic resources are like mined for the nonmetallic elements contained in them and for the specific physical and chemical properties they have. Generally, nonmetallic mineral resources can be divided into two different groups industrial minerals and building materials.

Samantha L said...

Metallic is metal found from Earths minerals. Any resources not used from oils are nonmetallic

Evan L said...

Iron and a tin can are good examples of metallic.

Ben S. said...

Metallic mineral resources can be melted and reused. However, non-metallic mineral resources cannot be reused or melted.

Examples for Metallic Resources: Lead, Zinc, Iron, Gold, etc.

Examples for Non-Metallic Resources: Diamond, etc.

Taylor J said...

Nonmetallic is a mineral resource with no fuels in it. Metallic is when you see a lot of metal items in a house, a school, etc.

Nonmetallic mineral resources is a material that isn't used as a fuel nor other minerals! A metallic mineral resource is a material that does have mineral deposits! Limestone is part of both groups. Examples: Sandpaper that has garnet (a gemstone) , road salt are nonmetallic. An example is a can that is made up of bauxite. The formula is Al2O3 + SiO2 + TiO2 + Fe2O3.

Non is something not able to be used with Fuels and minerals metallic can.

Ella T. said...

The difference between metallic and nonmetallic mineral resources is that metallic mineral thingys have metallic elements and such. Metallic things could also be a conductor of electricity. Nonmetallic minerals are really just the opposite of metallic minerals.

Jacob G said...

Metallic can be used over again and nonmetallic can't.

Metallic minerals are composed of mainly metallic elements. Nonmetallic minerals don't have that characteristic. Quartz is a nonmetallic mineral, while titanium is a metallic mineral.

Metallic Minerals:

I. Metallic mineral re those minerals which can be melted to obtain new products.

II. Iron, cooper, bauxite, tin, manganese are some examples.

III. These are generally associated with igneous rocks.

IV. They are usually hard and have shines or luster of their own.

V. They are ductile and malleable.

VI. When hit, they do not get broken.

Non-Metallic Minerals:

I. Non-metallic minerals are those which do not yield new products on melting.

II. Coal, salt, clay, marble are some examples.

III. These are generally associated with sedimentary rocks.

IV. They are not so hard and have no shine or luster of their own.

V. They are not ductile and malleable.

VI. When hit, they may got broken into pieces.

The difference between metallic and nonmetallic is metallic is shiny and nonmetallic isn't shiny. Metallic mineral recourses are gold, silver and copper. Nonmetallic mineral recourses are sulfur, phosphorus and calcium

Metallic mineral resources in a material that has mineral deposits, and can be melted and reused. Nonmetallic resources are materials that are not used to make fuels, and they are not reusable. An example of metallic mineral resources is iron, and an example of nonmetallic mineral resources is wood.

it works!

Adrian K said...

Nonmetallic mineral resources and metallic resources are different because nonmetallic is not used as a fuel source and metallic is.

Sophia S said...

Ok, Metallic minerals contain medals that can be used valuably also metallic have the ability to conduct energy. Nonmetallic minerals are like salt= gypsum.

A metallic resource shines or reflects light and nonmetallic does not shine some examples of metallic resources are mica and feldspar and some metallic are gold and silver.
