Actually, the Himalayas are rich in minerals, but harvesting them is restricted to the more accessible areas. The richest concentration of minerals is located in the Kashmir region. There are sapphires in the Zaskar Mountains and alluvial gold is found in the bed of the Indus River. Baltistan has copper ore; Ladakh has borax and sulfur deposits. There are also extensive deposits of coal, mica, gypsum, and graphite and ores of iron, copper, lead, and zinc in Nepal, Bhutan, and Sikkim, as well as copper ore in Baltistan and the Vale of Kashmir. Coal deposits are also found in the Jammu Hills and bauxite is found in Kashmir.
