Following efforts have to be made to use mineral in a planned and sustainable manner:

(i) Recycling of metals: We should recycle the metal or metal-made products to prevent its scarcity.

For example: Used steel blade should be sent for recycling, so that the steel can be used again for other purposes.

(ii) Improved technologies need to be evolved: Traditional technologies should be replaced with new and improved technologies, so that the wastages can be minimised.

(iii) Use of substitute or alternative resources: The resources which cannot be recycled or: reused should be replaced with the recyclable resources.

e.g. Use of green gas instead of coal for cooking purpose.
