B.

Mica, limestone, marble

C.

Nickel, cobalt, platinum

D.

More then one of the above

E.

None of the above

Correct option is B

The group consisting of mica, limestone, and marble belongs to the nonmetallic category of minerals. Nonmetallic minerals refer to minerals that do not contain metals or do not have metallic properties. These minerals are used in various industries for a wide range of purposes other than metal extraction. Mica is used in electrical and electronics industries for its insulating properties; limestone is a key raw material in cement manufacturing and soil conditioning, and marble is extensively used in architecture and sculpture for its aesthetic value and durability. Unlike metallic minerals, which are prized for their ability to be melted down to extract metals, nonmetallic minerals serve different functions in construction, manufacturing, and decorative arts.
