Cement industry is generally known as:

  • A.Source of raw material
  • B.Real Industry
  • C.Source of end products 

  • D.All of the above

Answer: A

Cement is generally classed as a raw-material-oriented industry.

Limestone loses weight in manufacture - roughly 1.6 tonnes of raw material give a tonne of cement - so it is cheaper to bring the fuel to the quarry than the stone to the market. Cement plants therefore cluster on the limestone belts of Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Andhra Pradesh.
