Weight losing and Weight gaining industry

$\huge\underline\bold\pink{Answer}$

In iron and steel industries, iron ore and coal both are weight-losing raw materials. Therefore, an optimum location for iron and steel industries should be near raw material sources.

Weight-gaining industries are industries where the raw materials are relatively small, but these are converted to produce a bulky finished product.
