    Minerals are composed primarily of oxygen, silicon, aluminum, iron, calcium, sodium, potassium, and magnesium according to the document. It divides minerals into two categories: 1) silicate minerals which contain silicon and oxygen, and 2) non-silicate minerals which are composed of other elements besides silicon and oxygen. The document provides a brief overview of the typical chemical compositions that make up different types of minerals.
