We need to conserve mineral resources due to the reasons as mentioned below :

(i) Our industry and agriculture depend on mineral deposits and the substances manufactured from them. But the total volume of workable mineral deposits is an insignificant fraction i.e., one per cent of the earth’s crest.

(ii) It took millions of years for the creation and concentration of mineral resources.

(iii) The geological processes of mineral formation is very slow but its consumption is fast. It may result in shortage in near future.

(iv) The mineral resources are finite and non-renewable.

(v) Even rich mineral deposits in a country like India are valuable but short-lived possessions.
