Earth's Inner Secrets

We finished the Earths Inner Secrets unit and we had to make a bubble.us. Everyone had to write what they learnt and this is what I know.

Mining Minerals In Your Country


The expansion of mining in this area began in the area when the rulers Nemanjićes brought miners from other countries. Rude, iron, chromium, manganese, molybdenum, cobalt, cadmium, copper, antimony, lead, zinc, coal, oil and cement marl. A special group of minerals are breeders of steel. They are added to enhance some of its most importantbreeders karakteristike. U steel include chromium, manganese, molybdenum, cobalt and kadmijum. Srbija has small amounts of coal. There are deposits of lignite coal, and coal. Three basins:  Kostolac, Kosovo and Kolubara.Two places in Serbia that I found are Bor and Majdanpek. Bor began in 1979. Since then and now, 150,000,000 tons of ore has been lifted. Each year, they take out about 1.9 million tons of ore from the ground. The last production was in 2002. Majdanpek is 80 km away from Bor. It started in 1961. From there people in Serbia get Copper. For this blog post I researched a lot. I feel like I did a good job and I hope you learnt something new!
