What are Rocks and Minerals? 🤔
A **mineral** is a solid that is found in nature. It is made of the same tiny pieces all the way through. Examples are quartz and gold.
A **rock** is made of one or more minerals mixed together! So, a rock is like a cookie, and the minerals are the ingredients inside it, like flour and chocolate chips. Rocks can be big, small, and come in all different shapes and colors.
