Non-renewable mineral resources are Natural Resources that are finite and cannot be replenished in a short period of time. Examples include fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas, as well as minerals like copper, gold, and silver. These resources are being depleted faster than they can be naturally replaced, leading to concerns about sustainability and environmental impact.
