The location of iron-steel industries in the Chota Nagpur Plateau is best understood by which combination?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Iron ore, coal, and other minerals

The governing concept is industrial location based on raw-material availability. Iron and steel plants require large quantities of iron ore, coking coal, limestone, manganese, water, power, and transport. The Chota Nagpur Plateau is close to important deposits of iron ore and coal and also contains other minerals needed by heavy industry. Locating production near bulky raw materials reduces transport cost and supports related industries, so option A gives the correct combination. Options B and D describe coastal or marine environments and do not explain the plateau’s metallurgical base. Option C belongs to cold high mountain regions and is unrelated to iron-and-steel industrial concentration. Hence the plateau is properly understood as a mineral-rich industrial region.
