The video tutorial explains the difference between rocks and minerals. Minerals are non-living substances that form naturally inside the Earth and are found in various places like soil, rivers, and oceans. They are also present in living things, as they absorb them from their surroundings. Common minerals include gold, silver, and quartz. Rocks, on the other hand, are made of tiny pieces of minerals called grains and can be found everywhere on Earth. The video highlights the significance of rocks and minerals in everyday life and encourages viewers to watch related content for more information.
