Explanation
Zinc is mined at Zawar in Rajasthan (3); gold at Hutti in Karnataka (4); chromite at Sukinda in Odisha (2); pyrite at Amjhore in Bihar (1). These are among India’s best-known mineral belts: Zawar for zinc-lead, Hutti for gold, Sukinda for chromite and Amjhore for pyrites. The correct code is therefore A-3, B-4, C-2, D-1, giving (C).
