Solution

The correct option is A

Yellow


All minerals are not ores.

The elements or compounds, which occur naturally in the earth’s crust, are known as minerals.

At some places, minerals contain a very high percentage of a particular metal and the metal can be profitably extracted from it. These minerals are called ores.

So, all ores are minerals, but not all minerals are ores.
