Answer:

  • Volcanic eruptions form precipitates and shifting of tectonic plates form minerals.

Explanation:

Both volcanic eruptions and the shifting of tectonic plates form minerals. Volcanoes and their eruptions can directly or indirectly lead to the formation and/or deposit of minerals such as diamonds and zinc. Shifting also forms minerals due to the forces of compression the plates apply on each other as they move past.
