Icebergs are nearly pure water because they are formed from falling snow. While the first ice you get from freezing mineral water may have less mineral content than the water you started with, it won't be free of minerals.

I'm not sure that I understand the question. If you are asking if by freezing mineral water the minerals would be removed, the answer is no. If you fill an ice cube tray with mineral water and place it in your freezer (usually 0 to -5 degrees Fahrenheit) it will result in frozen mineral water.

Minerals are chemically dissolved in water and will have to be chemically removed (not by physical filtering). We are not talking about small particles in water collected from a spring or stream either.
