Mineral is an elemental power.
History[]
The Great Beings experimented with fusion of Onu- and Av-Matoran, this caused the creation of the new element. The Great Beings liked the idea, so they started producing Matoran of mineral. They called them Si-Matoran. The only problem is that Si-Matoran cannot live without a piece of mineral because they get their power from it (as well as their coloring). To solve this problem they wear a piece of a mineral on a chain. After transforming into a Toa, they still need mineral to live, but they will not need as much as when they were a Matoran. This element spread across Spherus Magna. All the Si-Matoran are named after minerals such as: Amethyst, Chrysocolla, etc. Bohrok of Mineral also exist, however, they weren't released along with the other six swarms.

Differences between Light and Mineral[]
Both Av- and Si-Matoran have the ability to change their colors, but there is a big difference.
The Si-Matoran's colors and energy are given by different minerals. However, the Av-Matoran don't usually wear any mineral due to the fact they don't need it, and they change their colors at will.
Trivia[]
- All Matoran, Toa and Turaga of Mineral are female.
- The prefix comes from the chemical element Silicon.
- If a Matoran's, Toa's or Turaga's mineral is removed, they lose their color that changes to silver and feel dizzy. Removing both the mineral and mask causes instant death.
