Brief Explanations

Finite resources are those that exist in a limited quantity on Earth and cannot be replenished at a rate that matches their consumption. Nonrenewable resources fit this definition, as they form over extremely long geological timescales and will be depleted with use. In contrast, resources that "last forever" would be infinite, not finite.

Answer:

They are nonrenewable.
