Minerals resources are unevenly distributed in india explain |
|
Answer» India is a country with rich natural resources. She has been endowed with plenty of metallic and non- metallic minerals. However, these minerals are unevenly distributed due to variations in geological structures and various natural processes. For example:\tMost of the coal, metallic and non metallic minerals are found in the Peninsular India.\tSedimentary rocks on the western and eastern flanks of the peninsula, in Gujarat and Assam have most of the petroleum deposits.\tWhile Rajasthan has reserves of many non-ferrous minerals, the alluvial plains of north India are almost devoid of economic minerals. Frm this we can say that mineral resources in India are unevenly distributed ......... * peninsular plateau contains most of the reserves of coal, metallic minerals, mica, and many other non metallic minerals...... *Gujarat and Assam : sedimentary rocks on the western and eastern flanks of the peninsula, they have most of the petroleum deposits..... *Rajasthan has reserves of many non ferrous minerals....... *Northern plateau has very little or no economic minerals in vast alluvial plains of north india.... |
