Subsurface resources refer to natural materials found beneath the Earth's surface, including minerals, fossil fuels, and groundwater. These resources are essential for various industries, providing raw materials for construction, energy production, and manufacturing. Examples include coal, oil, and natural gas, which are crucial for powering homes and vehicles. The extraction of subsurface resources often involves mining or drilling techniques. Sustainable management of these resources is important to minimize environmental impact and ensure that future generations can also benefit from them. Proper regulation and technology can help balance resource use with ecological preservation.
