Q1Which mineral-mining area pair is not correctly matched?

A Rock Phosphate - Jhamar-Kotra
B Manganese - Kala-Khunta
C Garnet - Kalaguman
D Iron Ore - Morija-Dabla
Explanation

Jhamar-Kotra is a major rock phosphate area of Rajasthan, Kala-Khunta is listed among manganese localities, and Morija and Dabla are associated with iron-ore localities in Rajasthan. Kalaguman, however, is listed by Rajasthan's Department of Mines and Geology as an emerald locality, while garnet deposits are described in other district belts, especially the Kalyanpur-Rajmahal belt for gem garnet and Bhilwara-Rajsamand areas for abrasive garnet. Therefore the mismatched pair is Garnet - Kalaguman.
