Explanation

Bihar has historically been the leading producer of mica in India, particularly in the Koderma-Giridih region (now partly in Jharkhand after 2000). The mica belt in this region is world-famous for high-quality mica deposits. While other states produce mica, this region has been the traditional center of mica mining and production since colonial times.
