False becaus we still use use the theory of sea floor spreading. True the lithospheric is broken into piece known as plates. False, lithospheric plate is driven by asthenosphere. True, minerals are primarily formed by magma only. False, because quartz is one of the most abundant mineral available. True, because silicate is the most abundant mineral group on earth.
