Non-metallic mineral reserves consist of stone quarries and clay and sand pits; chemical and fertiliser mineral deposits; salt deposits; deposits of quartz, gypsum, natural gem stones, asphalt and bitumen, peat and other non-metallic minerals other than coal and petroleum.

metallic minerals containing valuable metals such as nickel (pentlandite), copper (chalcopyrite), zinc (sphalerite), lead (galena) and gold (occurs as a native element or as a minor constituent within other minerals) that are used in all aspects of our daily lives.

Hope this helps :)

How do humans contribute to natural selection? Help Plz
Montano1993 [528]
We are the top of the food chain, so we hunt a lot. like the way we do the fish in nets, it’s normal now for a fish to be naturally selected to be caught in the fishers’ net. humans contribute by hunting and collecting their own food even if they do it in masses just like how a cheetah catches and eats a gazel.

Matter is moved through the Earth by the interaction of Earth’s systems. Please select the best answer from the choices provided
White raven [17]

The correct answer is - True.

The matter is moved through the Earth by the interactions that appear between the Earth's systems. The lithosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, cryosphere, and atmosphere, are constantly interacting between each other. Those interactions cause lot of matter to move around the Earth, both on its surface and inside of it.

The plate tectonics movement manages to move pretty much all of the matter on the planet, though it is a very slow process, it is very important one. The atmosphere with the movement of the air masses, as well as the waters from the hydrosphere, and the ice of the cryosphere, all manage to to move around lot of matter with their force, and that can be very slowly and on small distance, or quickly and on longer distances. The biosphere too, even though it contributes the least int he movement of matter, contributes to the physical movement of smaller amounts of matter from one place to another.
