Collection: C♄Carbonate & Sulfate & Silicates

šŸŒ Carbonate, Sulfate, and Silicate minerals represent three major mineral classes formed through different geological processes. Carbonates typically form in marine and sedimentary environments, sulfates develop through evaporation and chemical precipitation, while silicates—being the most abundant group—compose much of the Earth’s crust and are often found in igneous and metamorphic rocks.
