Examples of nonrenewable resources would be coal, oil, gas and nuclear fuel like uranium.

These fuels are nonrenewable because they once you burn them or use them they can't be used again.

Anything that's mined from the Earth.

In the field of energy, that includes:

  • coal
  • lignite
  • oil
  • natural gas
  • shale oil

In the field of materials,

  • sand and gravel
  • gold
  • diamonds
  • iron ore
  • bauxite

The only non-renewable resources are ones that cannot be replaced, or at least replenished as quickly as it would be consumed. Hardwoods would be an example, if you don't replant them. Generally this is applied to fossil fuels : coal, oil, and natural gas, which would take millions of years to replace, and not quickly enough to replace what is used.


Simple, fossil fuels like petroleum and all oil related things
