Detailed explanation-1: -The Deccan plateau is very rich in minerals and precious stones. The plateau’s mineral wealth led many lowland rulers, including those of the Mauryan (4th–2nd century BCE) and Gupta (4th–6th century CE) dynasties, to fight over it. Major minerals found here include coal, iron ore, asbestos, chromite, mica, and kyanite.
Detailed explanation-2: -Occupying much of south-central India, the Deccan Plateau represents a large swath of the country’s agricultural terrain.
