No, because a pure (only water molecules) snowflake is just like ice. The polar water molecule's hydrogen bonds are formed better and more stable causing the water molecules to make designs such as ice or snowflakes.

No. "To be categorised as a "genuine" mineral, a substance might desire to be a solid and have a crystalline shape." (Wiki) even nonetheless, i do no longer think there is one in all those element as absolute water in nature. All water, sparkling or salt have strains of minerals in them. So there are minerals in water, yet water isn't a mineral

Unless the snowflake has picked up some sand particles on its way down.

No, it's frozen water, which is hydrogen and oxygen combined into a molecule (H2O). Hydrogen and oxygen are not considered minerals.

No. It's water, not a mineral.

No it is not a rock. It is just a freaking drop of water that is frozen solid as a crystal.

Only when a bunch of them are made into a snowball.
