Answer:

Resources are classified on the basis of status of development in the following categories:

i) Potential Resources - These are resources that have been found in a region but not yet been fully utilised.

ii) Developed Resources - These are resources which have been surveyed and their quality and quantity have been determined for utilisation. The development of these resources depends upon technology and feasibility.

iii) Stock- Stock are the materials in the environment which have the potential to satisfy human needs. However, human beings do not have the appropriate technology to access these resources.

iv) Reserves - These are stocks of resources that can be put to use with existing technology. However, their use has not yet been started. They can be used to meet future requirements.
