| 2. | Mining | Mining is well-developed in the Chota Nagpur Plateau in India because it is rich in various types of minerals. Hence, it is the main occupation of people residing there. Moreover, coal, mineral oil and natural gas, stones like marble are also mined in India. | Mining in the western part of Brazil is very limited.

| 4. | Industries | The distribution of industries in India is highly uneven due to the uneven distribution of the necessary raw materials and power resources. | Large industries are mainly concentrated in the southern and south-eastern parts of Brazil.
