Solution
We need to conserve mineral resources because-- Over exploitation of resources is the most serious problem and consequently they get exhausted.
- They are non renewable and it takes millions of years for them to form again.
- Continued extraction of ores leads to increasing costs as mineral extraction comes from greater depths along with decrease in quality.
