The following is a list of some items where their substitutes are being used instead of minerals:

Jewelry (Minerals):

Jewelry is generally made of minerals like gold, silver, and copper. Jewelry is also made from plastic. Plastics are derived from chemicals.


Metal beds, metal chairs, metal windows, and other metal stationery:

The above items, which are often made of metal, can also use plastic or wood instead of these metals. Wood comes from the plant [biosphere].


Solar energy, hydroelectric energy, wind energy, and hydrogen energy can be used in place of petroleum and coal minerals.
