I don't know of any adapters for such use. If it is an AF type minolta lens you are probably out of luck. If it is an older fully manual lens, then perhaps by some small slim chance there is an adapter somewhere.
The only cross-platform adapters i know of are the ones that let you put a M42 mount lens on a nikon/canon/etc.
You could try and sell your 'new' lens here or on ebay.

there are not many adapters for nikon because it has a long
film-plane distance (46.5mm) where minolta is 43.5mm
this would mean that the lens would have to be deeper in the body
the only way that would work is if you had a mirror lockup
