In which form do many minerals occur naturally on the earth’s surface?

Rocks are form of minerals that occur naturally on the earth's surface. Minerals are solid substances that occur naturally on earth, and rocks are mixtures of minerals. Most of the chemical elements are made up of minerals.

Answer:

Rocks (Solid form)

Step-by-step explanation:

Most of the minerals are formed of molten magma which cools on the earth’s surface to form rocks. These rock minerals are called ores from which minerals are extracted through various physical and chemical processing. There are more than 2500 mineral ores on the surface of earth. The most abundant minerals are – fledspar, pyroxene, mica, olivine, amphiboles, etc.
