what kind of resources a mountain give you?

Question

what can you get out of mountains, on top and at the feet of the mountain

Answer 1

Depends a lot on where you are at. Many minerals and other resources are associated with mountains. The Persians "mined" ice from nearby mountains. In some reasons timber and game is more abundant. Often this is because man has sprawled throughout the flat lands.

Anything volcanic in origin is more likely to be found in mountains with a history of vulcanism. Diamonds for example. Iron, gold, marble, and granite are more examples of resources connected to the processes that make mountains.
