Abstract: Abstract The economic progress of any society depends in large measure on its ability to adapt its productive structure to its wants and to its available natural resources. The natural endowment is usually less important to this process than the human contribution, but the quantity and character of natural resources have an important effect on the pattern of production and often on the level of incomes achieved.
