<u>Answer:</u>

Metallic minerals become concentrated in liquid magma because they undergo igneous and hydrothermal processes.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The magma that is formed deep beneath the 'surface of the Earth' carries various earth minerals to the surface of the Earth through convective actions.
  • It is responsible for the melting of solid minerals in the interiors of Earth.
  • The minerals as a result of melting, liquify and reach the levels where their density allows them to float.
  • This results in the concentration of minerals in liquid magma.
