is the use of minerals is more in this generation on the olden days or not?

Minerals and energy consumptions are increasing and its reserves are getting depleted day by day.

We are rapidly consuming mineral resources that required millions of years to be created and concentrated.The geological processes of mineral formation are so slow that the rate of replenishment are infinitely small in the comparison to the present rates of consumption.Mineral resources are therefore, finite and non-renewable. The use of minerals and energy resources is rapidly growing in the last two decade. So everyone have to adopt a cautious approach for the judicious use of our limited resources.
