classify resources on the basis of development with example

Answer
hope this answer helps
On the basis of the status of development, resources are classified into four groups, namely potential, developed, stock and reserve.
(i) Potential Resources : Potential resources are those which are found in a region, but have not been utilised. For example, solar energy and wind energy, available in Rajasthan and Gujarat, have not been developed properly.
(ii) Developed Resources : Developed resources are those which are estimated in terms of their quantity and quality for utilisation, e.g., water, soil, forests.
(iii) Stock Resources : Materials in the environment which have the potential to satisfy human needs but are not technologically accessible to human beings, e.g., use of water as a rich source of energy.
(iv) Reserve Resources : Reserve is a part of stock which can be put to use in the near future with the help of existing technology, e.g., water in dams, forests.

Answer:
Resources can be divided into four classes according to their status of development:-
1. Potential Resources:
This resources have the potential to satisfy your needs but haven't estimated and surveyed properly till now. E.g., Gujarat and Rajasthan have huge capacities to be developed in wind and solar energy,but not have been explored.
2. Developed Resources:
This have been estimated,surveyed and mapped for present usage. This depends on level of technology required and economic feasibility
3. Stock:
These are the resources that have huge potential to satisfy your needs,but we lack the required techinal know-how to access them. Example, water is a mixture of two inflammable gases,hydrogen and oxygen and can be a source of energy,but we lack the required techinal knowledge to do so.
4. Reserves:
These are sub set of stock. They are preserved for uses and needs of future generation. Example,the water flowing in forests,lakes etc is a reserve
