Abstract
Their products and services can be found in all areas of modern society and have
an essential function in ensuring life quality. Three of the main products are iron
ore, coal, and manganese, fundamental components in the production of steel,
which is used in basic industries, transportation, construction, and thousands of
everyday activities.
Others like Nickel are used in stainless steel production and in electronic and
medical equipment. Copper is an essential part of telecommunications. Bauxite is
the raw material for producing aluminum, widely used in industries ranging from
packaging to aircraft manufacturing.
The agricultural sector uses potassium and phosphate to increase yielding, while
kaolin is used especially in paper manufacturing in the pharmaceutical industry and
in ceramics.
