Which of the following are NOT correctly matched? (Mineral) - (Mining City)
- Copper - Chitradurga
- Iron ore - Ballari
- Manganese - Bhilwara
- Bauxite - Katni
Verified Answer
A. 1 and 2
B. 2 and 3
C. 1 and 3
D. 2 and 4
Explanation:
Manganese - Bhilwara is incorrectly matched as Bhilwara is primarily known for lead, zinc, and silver, not manganese. While Chitradurga has copper deposits, it might not be considered a primary copper mining city in some contexts, leading to it being considered 'not correctly matched' by the question setter. Iron ore - Ballari and Bauxite - Katni are correctly matched.
