Final Answer : E, Explanation :  Minerals,clay,and soil can all be treated as goods,with their sales contracts governed by Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code if the owner takes these items out of the ground and then sells them to the buyer; however,should the owner sell the buyer the right to come and remove the items,the contract would be governed not by the UCC but by common law for the sale of an interest in realty (more particularly,an interest known as a profit).
