India has vast deposit of minerals. Our metallic ores are very rich and of a very high quality. They are sufficient for maintaining most of our key industries. The major minerals produced in India are Iron-ore, Bauxite, Mica, Coal and Petroleum.
1. Iron-ore: Presently, India is ranked third in Iron ore production. A large quantity of world’s iron ore reserves is possessed by India. Iron ore of very good quality (Haematite and Magnetite) is obtained from principal areas in Orissa and Singhbhum in Bihar.
2. Bauxite: India is the fifth largest producer of Bauxite in the world. Bauxite is the ore of aluminium. Important bauxite deposits occur in Bihar, Goa, Gujrat, Jammu and Kashmir, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Orissa and Tamil nadu.
3. Mica: India is one of the largest mica-producing countries of the world. India is ranked first in sheet mica production. The Bihar mica is of the very high quality.
Al-Bauxite, H—Hmenite, Pb-Zn-Lead-Zinc ore, Au-Gold, M—Mica, U—Uranium ore, Cr—Chromite, P—Rock Phosphate
4. Coal: India. India is one of the principal producers of coal in the world. Bihar and West Bengal produce the largest quantity of coal in India and the quality is good.
5. Petroleum: India is poor in petroleum resources. Assam has the oldest oilfields at Digboi, Naharkatia, Moran, etc. These oil-fields are situated in the north-eastern part of Assam. The important new oil-fields are at Lunej, Ankleshwer,
6. Other Minerals: Coppor-ore, diamond, graphite, chromite (FeCr2O4), lead, magnesite ((MgCO3), manganese-ore, etc. are other mineral products of India.
