Whether biological or geological, natural resources are found where they are because natural processes either placed them there or provide the conditions for them to be there.
population needs to require their daily necessities of life. These necessities are food, shelter, clothing. these necessities can be fulfilled by natural resources. If there are no natural resources, the population will not be able to survive
The human population has used natural resources. Some say the population has depleted, or nearly depleted, some natural resources, but others deny that.
Well, AS resources in a populating become less available in population growth declines rapidly.
Resources that are extracted from the Earth's crust are geological resources, including rocks and mineral ores. Natural gas, crude oil, coal, copper, and gypsum are geological resources.
Resources that are found naturally and not man-made

The general term for an environmental factor that causes a population to decrease is a limiting factor. Some examples are emigration and mortality, a lack of resources, natural disasters happen which makes people scared to to live there so the people flee, and habitat loss.
Limited resources such as food, water, or habitat can restrict the size of a population by creating competition among individuals for these resources. Predation, disease outbreaks, and natural disasters can also play a role in limiting population size by reducing the number of individuals in a population.
