Answer 1

Steel ,it is a product of iron.

Answer 2

Bronze, bronze is a metal alloy produced by blending copper and tin in various amounts, depending on the application. Additional elements such as manganese, lead, and phosphorous are added to create bronze with specific properties.

Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon.The carbon in steel, usually between 0.2 and 2.0% allows it to be hardened and tempered. Modern steels often contain additional elements for other qualities as well.

Both Bronze and steel are man made and therefore not meeting the definition of a mineral.

Also mineral are Salt and other Cristal shaped materials.

Answer 6

Steel is not a mineral, its not even a normal metal. It's a 'posh' version of based on iron.

Answer 7

I'm guessing that you mean an element, not a mineral, and that you mean copper, not cooper.  They are all metals of mineral extaction, but the one that is not a single element is bronze.  It is an alloy of copper and tin, sometimes with other elements added, such as manganese, magnesium, or phosphorus.

Answer 8

Steel.
