Question

Arrange the following iron ore mines from North to South in India. \[ \begin{aligned} A.&\ \text{Kudremukh} B.&\ \text{Badampahar} C.&\ \text{Gurumahisani} D.&\ \text{Bailadila} \end{aligned} \] Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. B, D, A, C
• B. C, B, D, A
• C. B, C, D, A
• D. C, D, A, B

Hint:

Major iron ore mines: \[ \boxed{ \begin{aligned} \text{Gurumahisani} &\rightarrow \text{Odisha}, \text{Badampahar} &\rightarrow \text{Odisha}, \text{Bailadila} &\rightarrow \text{Chhattisgarh}, \text{Kudremukh} &\rightarrow \text{Karnataka}. \end{aligned} } \] Mnemonic: “Odisha → Chhattisgarh → Karnataka.”

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Concept: The locations are: \[ \begin{aligned} \text{Gurumahisani} &\rightarrow \text{Odisha (Northern)}, \text{Badampahar} &\rightarrow \text{Odisha}, \text{Bailadila} &\rightarrow \text{Chhattisgarh}, \text{Kudremukh} &\rightarrow \text{Karnataka (Southern)}. \end{aligned} \]

Step 1: Arrange from North to South. \[ \boxed{ \text{Gurumahisani} \rightarrow \text{Badampahar} \rightarrow \text{Bailadila} \rightarrow \text{Kudremukh} } \]

Step 2: Convert into letter sequence. \[ \boxed{ C \rightarrow B \rightarrow D \rightarrow A } \] Hence, \[ \boxed{\text{(B)}} \]
