MINERAL RESOURCES Of GREAT BRITAIN
Great Britain is rich in coal. There are rich coal fields in Northumberland, Lancashire, Yorkshire, Nottinghamshire, South Wales, North Wales and near Glasgow.
Among other mineral resources, iron ores found alongside coal layers are of great importance, but the iron content of most of the ores is very low.
There are tin and copper mines in Cornwall and Devonshire, copper and lead mines in England.
Lead and silver ores are also mined in Derbyshire and Cumberland and Lancashire.
The United Kingdom (UK) was the first country in the world, which became highly industrialized. During the rapid industrialization of the 19th century, one of the most important factors was that coal deposits were situated near the ground surface, which made mining easy. Coal mining is one of the most developed industries in Great Britain. The biggest coal and iron mines are in the north-east of England, near Newcastle, in Lancashire; in Scotland near Glasgow; in Wales near Cardiff and Bristol.
Until recent times, Britain’s heavy industry was mainly concentrated in the centre of England and in the London region. Such towns as Birmingham, Coventry and Sheffield produced heavy machines, railway carriages and motor cars. In the 20th century new branches of industry have appeared: electronics, radio, chemical industry and others.
