Africa's third largest gold producer after South Africa and Ghana. In 2010 the gold stood for
over 80 percent of the export earnings. Moreover marble, phosphate and uranium are mined in
minor amounts. There are also reserves of bauxite, iron, manganese, salt, silver, diamond,
copper and nickel.
No, what is broken is sand and limestone, used in local construction projects.
The world's largest exporter of phosphate, a commodity that has risen sharply in price in
recent years, and the country also controls rich phosphate deposits in the Western Sahara.
Rich in minerals such as iron ore, oil, gold and copper. 2009, the mining and oil together stood
for more than a third of the gross domestic product (GDP).
Type no.
Rich in natural resources. The country was formerly the world's largest silver producer (now
passed by Peru). Now even gold production is coming. Mexico is also a major producer of
zinc, lead, copper, iron and several other metals and sulfur.
Good resources on a variety of metals and minerals, including oil, natural gas and coal. The
country also has plenty of hydropower.
Insignificant.
Rich in minerals such as copper, gold, coal and uranium, and mining is the main export
industry. Coal, fluorspar, copper and molybdenum are mined in large quantities, and tin,
tungsten and uranium to a lesser extent. Gold mining increases. There are also deposits of
silver, nickel, lead, zinc and iron.
Relatively rich in minerals, such as copper, bauxite and iron ore, and is self-sufficient in coal
(mostly lignite).
Has one of the largest deposits of diamonds and uranium in the world. There are also plenty of
other minerals. The discovery of large oil deposits in 2011 has raised hopes for large-scale
mining.
Large reserves of phosphate. Phosphate extracted from the fossilized bird droppings that
previously covered up to 80 percent of the island. Exports gave great income per capita under
the first decades after independence 1968 th .
With the exception of natural gas and fertile soil, the country has few natural resources. There
are small oil deposits primarily in the North Sea. In addition salt, limestone and sand are
extracted.
Nepal's mineral resources are poorly explored. The only thing that have been founf in major
deposits is mica. There are also some copper, zinc, iron and cobalt. A little mining is done, but
the majority of known reserves are not profitable to process.
The mining industry covers gold, silver, salt, marble, other stones and sand. It's just gold and
silver that gives some major export revenues.
One of the world's largest producers of uranium and production is expected to rise
significantly when a new mine goes into service in 2013. In addition, oil is produced and there
are large deposits including coal, iron, nickel, copper, phosphate and gypsum.
One of the world's ten largest oil exporters. Natural gas reserves are also among the largest in
the world.
Nearly nine-tenths of the Korean Peninsula s mineral resources in terms of coal, iron ore,
copper, lead, zinc, magnesite, tungsten, graphite, fluorite, and tungsten. There are major gold
deposits and certain supply of silver and uranium.
Norway is the world's fifth-largest oil exporter. Gas production is expected to expand and
2020 it will bring in more money to the Treasury than the oil production. Additional amenities
include iron ore, coal (Svalbard), lead, zinc, aluminum and copper.
Relatively poor in minerals. Only phosphate, coal, limestone, dolomite and iron sand is present
in greater quantity. Some gold mining takes place, however.
Oil, but the oil fields are small and scattered, making them less productive and extraction more
expensive than in neighboring countries.
Pakistan has relatively limited natural resources, including natural gas, which is the is most
important one.
Palau has small deposits of gold and other minerals on the seabed.
