Coal
Iron Ore
Uranium
Bauxite
Answer is Wrong!
Answer is Right!
The correct answer is: A) Coal
Telangana has significant reserves of coal. The state is home to the Singareni Collieries Company Limited (SCCL), which is one of the largest coal producers in India. The SCCL has coal reserves of over 8 billion tonnes, and it produces over 60 million tonnes of coal per year.
Coal is a fossil fuel that is used to generate electricity, produce steel, and make other products. It is a non-renewable resource, and its use contributes to climate change.
The other options are incorrect because:
- Iron ore is a mineral that is used to make steel. Telangana does have some iron ore reserves, but they are not as significant as the coal reserves.
- Uranium is a mineral that is used to make nuclear fuel. Telangana does have some uranium reserves, but they are not as significant as the coal reserves.
- Bauxite is a mineral that is used to make aluminum. Telangana does not have any significant bauxite reserves.
