I r o n ores---
The entire store of iron ores in the
Jharkhand area is more than 3000
million tones .Out of this reserve
,around 2000 million tones arise in
the Chiria region.
Bauxite---
the deposits of bauxite in Jharkhand
are limited to Latehar , Gumla ,and
Lohardaga districts.some important
bauxite bearing areas are: Pakhar,
Orsapat, Bagru,
Serengdag, Kujam,
Gurdari, and
Chirodih Nindi,
SenaiJalim,
etc.
Limestone:
there are around 22 limestone
mines in Jharkhand that constitutes
the total reserve of 563 million tons
in the areas of
Hazaribagh,Palamau, Ranchi and
Singbhum districts. All the types of
limestone are obtainable in these
mines.
Mica----
Jharkhand constitutes around 46
percent of Mica reserves.
Jharkhand persists to be the
most
important producer of Mica in India.
Affluent Copper ore deposits crop
up in the East Singbhum. Out of
the 703 million tones reserves in
INDIA, JHARKHAND STATE
HAS AROUND 47 MILLION
TONES DEPOSIT OF FIRECLAY.

Graphite---
jharkhand’s Graphite reserve is
primarily situated in the district
of Palamau. In Palamau district,
both blistering and nebulous
graphite transpire in lumpy
appearance at Barwadih,
Sokra and Satbarba regions. 0.6
million tones reserve along with 50

RESOURCES
NATURAL
RESOURCES
Natural resources are
materials created in nature
that are used and usable by
humans. They include natural
substances (e.g., soil, water)
and energy supplies (e.g.,
coal, gas) that serve to satisfy
human needs and wants.
TYPES OF RESOURCES---
INEXHAUSTIBLE EXHAUSTIBLE
RESOURCE RESOURCES
An exhaustible resource is a
An inexhaustible resource is a resource that has a risk of
resource that never runs out or gets
depleted. Some of such resources
getting depleted. Some of such
include wind, sun, solar energy, resources include fossil fuels
tides, and geothermal energy. They such as Coal, petroleum, natural
are mostly the natural occurring gas etc. It takes millions of years
resources hence they reappear for them to get formed.
naturally.
WHY DO WE NEED
TO MANAGE OUR
RESOURCES?
 The resources of the earth are
limited. As the human population is
increasing rapidly, the demand for
resource increases day by day. thus
proper management of
these resources can ensure that they
last for the generations to come.
Equitable distribution of resources .
Pollution concern .
THE THREE R’S TO SAVE
THE ENVIRONMENT
REDUCE :- means using less of natural
resources and avoiding wastage of natural
resources
RECYCLE :- means the materials like
paper ,plastic glass ,metals ,etc .used for making
things can again be used for making new things
instead of synthesizing or extracting new
paper ,plastic glass or metals
REUSE :- means using things again and again
like the plastic bottles in which we buy
jams ,pickles etc can be again used for storing
things in the kitchen
GANGA
ACTION PLAN
Multicore project came in 1985 to
improve the quality of Ganga.
Contamination of river water is indicated
by the presence of COLI FORM (a group
of bacteria found in human intestine) and
acidic water(can be tested by the PH paper
or PH meter) .
STAKEHOLDE
RS
People having interest or concern for something
Stakeholders of forests :
Local people depend on forest for their survival
Forest department (government who owns the
land and controls resources)
Industrialists who use various forest products
Wildlife enthusiasts who want to conserve nature
FORESTS
Forests have moderate climate,
help cleanse the air and water,
and house wildlife.
They also provide thousands of
wood products and related jobs.
Trees are used to make paper,
hockey sticks, flooring and food
Forests face threats from fire,
pollution, erosion and acid rain.
NATIONAL AWARD FOR
WILDLIFE CONSERVATION---
 this award was given in the memory
of amrita deVI bishnoi .
She lost her life in the protection of
khejri trees in rajasthan along with
363 other people.
She sacrified her life along with her 3
daughters Asu, Ratni and Bhagu in
year 1730 to save green trees being
felled by the Maharaja of Jodhpur at a
place known as Khejarli in Marwar ,
Rajasthan. Along with her more than
363 other Bishnois, died saving the
Khejri trees.
 CHIPKO
ANDOLAN ----
This was movement originated
in Garhwal in early 1970s that
was the result of a grassroot
level effort to end the alienation
of people from their forest.
It began in 1973 in
Uttarakhand, then a part of
Uttar Pradesh (at the foothills of
Himalayas) and went on to
become a rallying point for
many future environmental
movements all over the world.
 Forests help to preserve biodiversity.
Forests are natural habitat of plants
and animals.

IMPORTA
Forests provide timber , wood, fuel ,
medicines , fodder , etc.

NCE OF Forests help to maintain ecological

balance.

FOREST Forests help control climate and

rainfall.
Forests help to prevent soil erosion.
Forests help to maintain oxygen-
carbondioxide balance in nature.
 Importance of wildlife—
 Wildlife helps to preserve biodiversity.
 Wildlife helps to maintain food chains and food webs.
 We get useful products from wildlife like leather ,medicine ,food ,etc.

Conservation of wildlife—
 Preserving the natural habitats of animals .
 Banning pouching of animals.
 Protecting endangered species of animals.
 Setting up of wildlife sanctuaries,national parks,etc.

SUSTAINABLE
MANAGEMEN
T
Sustainable resource
management means managing
resources in a way that
their sources are not depleted; so
that the future generations can
also benefit from it.
A renewable resource can be
used again and again, so is
more sustainable, eg water, wind,
wood, sun and wave energy.
WATER FOR ALL

Water is the basic necessity for all

terrestrial forms of life
Irrigation methods like dams ,tanks
and canals have been used in
various parts of INDIA
A dam is a barrier that stops or restricts the flow of
water or underground streams.
Reservoirs created by dams not only suppress
floods but also provide water for activities such as
irrigation, human consumption, industrial use,
aquaculture, and navigability.
Hydropowers is often used in conjunction with dams
to generate electricity. A dam can also be used to
collect water or for storage of water which can be
evenly distributed between locations. 
. Dams generally serve the primary purpose of
retaining water, while other structures such as 
floodgates or levees (also known as dikes) are used
to manage or prevent water flow into specific land
regions. The earliest known dam is the Jawa Dam in 
Jordan, dating to 3,000 BC.

WATER HARVESTING:-
Rain water harvesting is the collection and storage of rain, rather
than allowing it to run off. Rainwater is collected from a roof-like
surface and redirected to a tank, cistern, deep pit (well, shaft, or
borehole), aquifer, or a reservoir with percolation. 
Its uses include watering gardens, livestock, irrigation, domestic use
 with proper treatment, and domestic heating. The harvested water
can also be committed to longer-term storage or 
groundwater recharge
Rainwater harvesting is one of the simplest and oldest methods of 
self-supply of water for households, and residential and household-
scale projects, usually financed by the user.
 Aims of water harvesting—
 Develop secondary resources of water.
 Emphasis scientific soil conservation.
 Increases production and income of water shed communities.
 Production of biomass.
Objectives of water harvesting –
 To recharge groundwater.
 To provide clean water.
 To store water for a long time.
 To provide moisture for vegetation.
KHADIN
SYSTEM---
A khadi is an ingenious
construction designed to
harvest surface runoff water
for agriculture.
its main feature is a very long
(100-300 m) earthen
embankment built across the
lower hill slopes lying below
gravelly uplands. This
conserves the maximum
possible rainwater runoff
within the agricultural field.
Sluices and spillways allow
excess water to drain off.
COAL---
Coal is a hard rock which can be burned
as a solid fossil fuel. It is mostly carbon but
also contains hydrogen, Sulphur , oxygen
and nitrogen. It is a sedimentary rock
formed from peat, by the pressure of rocks
laid down later on top.

 The extraction and use of coal causes
many premature deaths and much illness. [
PETROLEU
M
Petroleum is a naturally occurring liquid found beneath the
earth's surface that can be refined into fuel. Petroleum is
a fossil fuel, meaning that it has been created by the
decomposition of organic matter over millions of years.
Petroleum is used as fuel to power vehicles, heating units,
and machines, as well as being converted into plastics and
other materials
 Because the majority of the world relies on petroleum for
many goods and services, the petroleum industry is
extremely powerful and is a major influence on world
politics and the global economy.
The fossil fuels, coal and petroleum will ultimately be
exhausted.because of this and because their combustion
pollutes our environment ,we need to use these resources
judiciously.
