Question
west virginia has a lot of mountains. which industry could be a direct result of this type of land form?
chemical industry
coal industry
glass industry
West Virginia has a significant coal - mining history. Coal is typically found in mountainous regions. The coal industry directly relies on the presence of coal deposits which are often located in mountainous areas. Glass industry may use silica (sand) which can be found in various regions not necessarily mountainous. The chemical industry is more diverse in its raw material sources and not as directly tied to mountainous landforms for its primary raw material as coal mining.
