Detailed Solution

In the Bellary-Chitradurga-Chikmagalur - Tumkur region are the Kudremukh mines.
Karnataka's Bellary-Chitradurga-Chikmagalur - the Tumkur area, has significant iron ore reserves. Karnataka is the source of over 25% of the nation's total iron production. The Kudremukh mines, which are entirely an export operation, are situated in Karnataka's Western Ghats. Kudremukh deposits are among the greatest in the world. A pipeline transfers the ore as slurry to a port close to Mangalore.
