Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Due to the geographical location, India has rich and varied mineral sources. But these resources are unevenly distributed throughout India. The Peninsular rocks in India contain most of the reserves for coal, metallic minerals, mica, and many other non-metallic resources. Western and eastern ghats of the Peninsula as well the states such as Gujarat and Assam have sedimentary rocks with most of the petroleum deposits. Rajasthan has non-ferrous mineral reserves while alluvial plains in North India are absent with economic minerals.
The correct statement is minerals are not evenly distributed in India.
