The human body needs nutrients and minerals, but the minerals you stated here is the minerals found in rocks, does the human body share the same kind of minerals found in rocks? Or are they two different types? If you eat rock, is it possible that you can get minerals from the rock?

Rocks

1. Can all minerals form rocks?

Most minerals can form rocks because rocks are made of minerals.

2. Why is ice a mineral but water is not?

Ice is a solid, so it is a mineral. Water is a liquid, so it is not.

3. Why are only solids minerals?

Only solids can have a crystal structure, which minerals need.

On the second question’s answer you stated that ‘ice is a solid and that’s why it contains minerals’, do all solids contain minerals?

If water does not contain any minerals, what is “mineral water” that you buy from the store?
