Answer:

Spain colonized for fur trades, gold, and silver.

As for the England/English colonies, the main reason they colonized was for the wish to obtain Religious Freedom and obtain land.

The point of Spanish exploration were in search of valuable minerals/rocks, wealth, looking for "The city of gold" ( or can be acknowledged as El Dorado ).

The point of England/English exploration was to find spices, silks, and wealth.
