Iron and Steel Industry
Explanation:
Mineral-based industries are based on mining and use minerals obtained from their respective ores as raw material. These industries form the basic industries as they supply raw material to other industries like machine tools which are used for further production. Iron and steel industry is one of the major mineral-based industries.
It is concentrated in and around areas where iron ore is mined. The raw material is available in abundance in the Chota Nagpur Plateau region. So major producers of iron and steel are located in that area.
