Answer:

1)All minerals are naturally occuring.

2)They have to have a crystalline structure and a definite chemical composition.

3)They are inorganic.

4)They are a solid.

Step-by-step explanation:

1-You have to find a mineral in the nature. It cannot be created in a lab.

2-Crystallline structure is the ordered arrangement of ions, molecules, or atoms in an object.

3-Inorganic means that the object has not bonded with carbon.

4-Solid means that it is not fluid and is hard and stable.

Hope this helps! :)
