Minerals and Energy Resources
'Minerals are unevenly distributed in India.' Support the statement with examples.
India is blessed with plenty of metallic and non-metallic mineral resources. However, they are unevenly distributed due to differences or variations in geological structures, processes and time involved in the formation of minerals. For instance,
1. majority of coal reserves, metallic minerals, mica and many other non-metallic minerals.
2. sedimentary rocks in Gujarat and Assam have petroleum deposits.
4. the alluvial plains of North India are mostly devoid of mineral resources.
