  • Birmitrapur (Sundargarh)Limestone and Dolomite

Cevap

Panchpatmali (Koraput) pairs with Bauxite; Sukinda Valley (Jajpur) pairs with Chromite; Mayurbhanj District pairs with Iron Ore; and Birmitrapur (Sundargarh) pairs with Limestone and Dolomite.
The correct pairings accurately link each state mining region with its primary mineral deposit: Panchpatmali with Bauxite (supplying NALCO), Sukinda Valley with Chromite (holding over 90% of national reserves), Mayurbhanj District with Iron Ore (Gorumahisani and Badampahar mines), and Birmitrapur with Limestone and Dolomite.

Adım Adım Çözüm

2
Identify the primary mineral found in Sukinda Valley of Jajpur district.
Sukinda Valley holds the vast majority of India's chromite ore reserves.
It is the chief supplier of chromite for ferro-chrome metallurgical industries.
3
Match Mayurbhanj district with its prominent historical mineral exploitation.
Mayurbhanj is known for high-grade iron ore mines such as Gorumahisani and Badampahar.
These iron ore belts were among the earliest mined in India for steel manufacturing.
