i can't answer my own question lol
Railroads were often built to connect areas with abundant natural resources, such as mining or agriculture, to markets and ports for transport. The presence of natural resources like coal, iron ore, and timber influenced the routes and expansion of railroad networks to efficiently move goods to where they were needed.
Push factors for westward migration in the 19th century included overcrowding in the East, economic hardship, and lack of opportunities. Pull factors included the promise of land ownership, economic opportunities such as gold mining, and the allure of adventure in the expanding frontier. These factors combined to drive a significant wave of migration towards the American West during the 1800s.
An area where most of the land is used for mining is known as a mining district or a mining region. These areas are characterized by extensive mining activities, infrastructure to support mining operations, and regulation specific to mining industry. Examples include the Pilbara region in Australia for iron ore mining and the Witwatersrand Basin in South Africa for gold mining.
The western part of the United States, particularly states like Nevada, Arizona, and Utah, have some of the largest numbers of mining areas in the country. These areas are known for their rich mineral deposits and historical significance in mining.
Coal mining is a major industry in the Appalachian Mountains in the eastern United States.
