If an area has low density but mineral industry is developing rapidly, which future estimate can be correct?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Density may increase due to employment

Direct answer: Option C. Population density is not fixed forever; it changes when population or area changes. A rapidly developing mineral industry can create jobs, attract workers, support transport and encourage new settlements. If more people move into the area while its land area remains broadly the same, the population increases and density may rise. Option A is wrong because future density can change with migration, births, employment and development. Option B is wrong because a low density is not the same as zero population, and industrial growth may attract more residents. Option D is unrelated and scientifically unsupported; development does not make the area disappear. The word “may” is important because industry does not guarantee settlement growth: environmental conditions, infrastructure, safety and job stability also matter. Memory cue: new jobs can act as a pull factor and change the population map.
