■ DISTRIBUTION OF MINERALS and MINERAL BELTS. [ PART - 1] #Economicgeography #Minerals □ Uneven distribution :- ◇ The high rainfall areas of india lack in limestone, gypsum, and salts which are soluble. ◇ The northern plains of india have thick layers of alluvium which has completely concealed the bedrocks. This region of the country is poor in mineral resources. ◇ The Himalayas have a variety of rocks but its geological structure is too complex. The exploitation of minerals in this mountainous terrain is not economically viable not only due to small quantity available at any one location but also due to difficult terrain, lack of transportation, sparse population and adverse climatic conditions. ◇ Thus evident that our rich mineralized zone with relatively sizeable quantities is confined to the old, crystalline rock structures of plateaus and low hills of peninsular india. ▪︎SOURCE - D.R.

■ SMALL HYDROPOWER. #Energysources ◇ There is no globally accepted definition of a small Hydropower plant (SHP) because different countries use different capacity limits for defining. ◇ For example – Developed countries have a range of 1.5 to 2.0 MW whereas in developing countries the limits varies from 25 – 50 MW. In India Hydropower plants with a capacity up to 25MW considered SHP. ◇ Generation of electricity from small sized hydropower sources is a low cost, environment friendly and renewable source of energy. ◇ Small and mini hydel projects have the potential to provide energy in remote and hilly areas where extension of grid system un economical. ◇ The first SHP of 130 KW was installed at Darjeeling in 1897. This was followed by mysore in 1902. ◇ Karnataka tops in both potential and installed capacity followed by HP. ▪︎SOURCE - D.R. Khullar. ▪︎@upsc_geography_notes
