1.
2. Natural resources (economically referred
to as land or raw materials) occur naturally
within environments that exist relatively
undisturbed by mankind, in a natural form. A
natural resource is often characterized by
amounts of biodiversity existent in various
ecosystems. Natural resources are derived
from the environment.
A natural resource is anything people
can use which comes from nature. People
do not make natural resources, but gather
them from the earth. Examples of natural
resources are air, water, wood, crude oil,
solar energy, wind energy, hydro-electric
energy, and coal
3. Any property of the physical environment, such as minerals,
or natural vegetation, which humans can use to satisfy their
needs
Actual and potential forms of wealth supplied by nature,
such as coal, oil, wood, water power, and arable land
The naturally occurring assets that provide use benefits
through the provision of raw materials and energy used in
economic activity
Asset or material that constitutes the natural capital of a
nation. Natural resources require application of capital and
human resources (mental and physical labor) to be exploited
(extracted, processed, refined) for the realization of their
economic value
4. Natural resources are classified into two groups
A renewable resource grows again or comes back again
after we use it. For example, sunlight, water, and trees
are renewable resources
A non-renewable resource is a resource that does not grow or come
back, or a resource that would take a very long time to come back.
For example, coal is a non-renewable resource. When we use coal,
there is less coal afterward. One day, there will be no more of it to
make goods. The non-renewable resource can be used directly (for
example, burning oil to cook), or we can find a renewable resource to
use (for example, using wind energy to make electricity to cook). It is
important to conserve (save) non-renewable resources, because if
we use them too quickly there will not be enough
10. Some examples of natural resources include the
following:
Air, wind and atmosphere
Plants
Animals
Coal, fossil fuels, rock and mineral resources
Forestry
Range and pasture
Soils
Water, oceans, lakes, groundwater and rivers
Solar power

13. Natural (mineral resources) are
backbone for the industrial
development of a country. These
resources play a dominant role in
accelerating in the pace of progress
and prosperity. Economic
development of an economy is not
possible without the availability of
mineral resources.
14. Mining is an important industry in Pakistan.
Pakistan has deposits of several minerals including
coal, copper, gold, chromite, mineral salt, bauxite
and several other mierals. There are also a variety of
precious and semi-precious minerals that are also
mined. These include peridot, aquamarine, topaz,
ruby, emerald, rare-earth minerals bastnaesite and
xenotime, sphene, tourmaline, and many varieties
and types of quartz
15. METALLIC MINERALS NON-METALLIC MINERALS
Iron ore coal
Copper sulphur
Antimony rock salt
Chromites barite
Celestite gypsum
Manganese soapstone
Gold fluoride
Tin limestone
Bauxite marble
clay

17. Coal:
Coal is used in thermal power station
and in furnaces for making bricks. About
80 percent of cement industry has now
switched over to indigenous coal from
furnace oil that has saved considerable
foreign exchange being spent on the
import of furnace oil. Quality of coal is
not very good. The coalfield in the Sindh
province has huge coal resources of
about 175 billion tones. In view of the
anticipated shortfall of electricity and
other energy resources during the next
10 years, the maximum utilization of coal
would be required in power generation
and gasification.
18. Natural Gas:
Natural gas is
used in domestic
cooking, thermal power
stations and steel
furnaces and as a raw
material for fertilizer
industry and in CNG kits
for transport purpose. It
is used almost in every
industry
19. Petroleum:
Petroleum or Crude, oil is used in
transport, power-generating stations, in iron and
steel furnace Petroleum is known as black liquid
gold. Of the total requirement only 40 percent is
produced with the country and the rest is
imported from abroad.
20. Lime Stone
Limestone is used in
manufacture of cement, lime,
soap, paper, bleaching
powder and glass. It is also
used in paint industries. It is
used in Glass making, in
some circumstances. It is
added to toothpaste, paper,
plastics, paint, tiles, and
other materials as both white
pigment and a cheap filler.
Used in blast furnaces,
limestone extracts iron from
its ore. It is often found in
medicines and cosmetics. It
is used in sculptures
because of its suitability for
21. Marble and Granite:
Marble is used for decoration in construction industry
and buildings. It is also used in sculpture. Colorless or light-
colored marbles are a very pure source of calcium carbonate,
which is used in a wide variety of industries. Finely ground marble
or calcium carbonate powder is a component in paper, and in
consumer products such as toothpaste, plastics, and paints
22. Rock Salt
Rock salt is used for cooking and
preservative purposes as well as in the
manufacture of soda ash, bicarbonate of soda,
caustic soda, etc. It is also used in textile and
tanning industries.
23. Gypsum:
Gypsum is used as a raw material in
industries. Gypsum is used in the manufacture of
cement, fertilizers and Plaster of Paris.
24. SOAPSTONE:
Soapstone (steatite)
is a kind of talc (gray to green
mineral found in rocks). It is
used in many ways. In
Pakistan it is used in the
manufacturing of soaps,
ceramics and face powder.
Soapstone is used for
sculpture. Soapstone is used
by craftsman and carpenters
as a marker because its marks
are visible and not permanent.
25. BARITE:
It is used in the manufacture of paints, glass,
insecticides and barium compound.
