Answer:
Mineral: The naturally occuring chemical substances in form of which the metals occur in the earth along with impurities are called minerals.
Ore: The mineral from which metal can be extracted conveniently and economically is called an ore.
Thus, all ores are minerals but all minerals are not oies.
