Every day they are experienced, from the sight of a diamond in an engagement ring, to a copper chain with a cross on it. Minerals are touched on in video games like Minecraft® and Mineral ValleyTM, making them more a part of daily experiences. Salt, one vital mineral, helps maintain the fluid in blood cells and is used to transmit information in nerves and muscles. Also, Jesus told his followers that they are the salt of the earth (Matthew 5:13), something thus needed for health and flavor. Here is a God-honoring book that reveals the first mention of minerals in the Bible, symbolic usages, their current values in culture and society, and their mention in heaven.
