Discussion
A : Potential resources are those resources whose entire quantity may not be known.
B : These resources are not being used at present.
Choose the correct option.
Answer: A
Both A and B are true.
Potential resources are those whose entire quantity may not be known and which are not being used at present, though they could be used in the future. The uranium found in Ladakh is a standard example: it is known to exist but has not yet been put to use.
Statements A and B are simply the two halves of this definition, so both are true. They contrast with actual resources, whose quantity is known and which are being used now, such as the coal of the Ruhr region. The options calling either statement false are therefore wrong.
