Aia ʻo Kanada ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻākau o ka ʻāina ʻAmelika ʻAkau a pili i ka Moana Pākīpika ma ke komohana, ka Moana ʻAkelanika ma ka hikina, a me ka Moana ʻAtika ma ka ʻākau. ʻO kona hoalauna ma ka hema ʻo ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa ʻo ʻAmelika. Me ka huina nui o 9,984,670 km2, ʻo ia ka lua o nā ʻāina nui loa ma ka honua a he 34,300,083 ka poʻe e noho ana ma Iulai 2011. ʻO ke aniau o ka ʻāina mai ka sub-arctic a me ka arctic ma ka ʻākau a hiki i ka temperate ma ka hema.
Nui a ʻokoʻa nā kumuwaiwai kūlohelohe o Kanada. ʻO nā nickel, nā hao hao, ke gula, ke kālā, nā diamana, nā lānahu, nā aila a me nā mea hou aku i ʻeli ʻia ma aneʻi.
Hōʻuluʻulu manaʻo
Ua waiwai ʻo Kanada i nā kumuwaiwai a ʻo ka ʻoihana mineral ʻo Kanada kekahi o nā ʻoihana nui o ka honua. Hoʻopiʻi ka ʻāpana mining o Kanada ma kahi o $ 20 biliona i ka hoʻopukapuka kālā i kēlā me kēia makahiki. ʻO ka hana ʻana o ke kinoea kūlohelohe a me ka aila, nā lānahu a me nā ʻaila ʻaila i koho ʻia ma $ 41.5 biliona ma 2010. Ma kahi o 21% o kā Kanada huina waiwai kūʻai waiwai kūʻai waiwai mai nā minela. No nā makahiki i hala aku nei, ʻo Kanada ka huakaʻi nui no ka hoʻokele waiwai ʻimi.
E pili ana i ka hana waiwai honua, Kanada:
- ʻO ka mea hana potash alakaʻi o ka honua.
- ʻO ka lua o ka mea hana uranium.
- ʻO ke kolu o ka mea hana aila.
- ʻO ka ʻelima nui o nā mea hana alumini, he mea miner o nā daimana, nā pōhaku makamae, nā nickel ore, cobalt ore, zinc, refined indium, platinum group metal ores a me sulfur.
Nā mea hao
Hoʻolahalaha ʻia nā waihona metala nui o Kanada ma loko o ka ʻāina. Akā mālama ʻia nā mālama nui i nā mauna Rocky a me nā wahi kai. Hiki ke loaʻa nā waihona liʻiliʻi o nā metala hoʻokumu ma Quebec, British Columbia, Ontario, Manitoba, a me New Brunswick. ʻO nā Indium, tin, antimony, nickel a me tungsten e ʻeli ʻia ma aneʻi.
Aia nā mea hana nui o ka aluminika a me ka hao ma Montreal. ʻO ka hapa nui o kā Kanada huli ʻana molybdenum i hana ʻia ma British Columbia. I ka 2010, ka Gibraltar Mines Ltd. hoʻonui i ka hana o molybdenum e 50% (ma kahi o 427 mau tona) i hoʻohālikelike ʻia me 2009. Hoʻomau ʻia nā papahana ʻimi he nui no ka indium a me ka tin mai 2010. Hoʻomau nā hui mining Tungsten i ka mining ma 2009 ke hoʻonui ʻia ka noi no ka metala me ka piʻi ʻana o nā kumukūʻai.
Nā minelala hana a me nā pōhaku makamae
ʻO ka hana daimana ma Kanada ma 2010 i hōʻea i 11,773 tausani carats. I ka 2009, ua hāʻawi ka ʻEkati mine 39% o nā hana daimana a pau ma Kanada a me 3% o ka nui o ka hana daimana i ka honua. Ke hoʻomaka nei kekahi mau haʻawina daimana mua ma ka ʻĀkau komohana. ʻO kēia nā wahi o Ontario, Alberta, British Columbia, Teritori Nunavut, Quebec a me Saskatchewan. Pēlā nō, ke lawe ʻia nei ka noiʻi mining lithium i kēia mau wahi.
Lawe ʻia nā noiʻi hiki ke hiki i ka Fluorspar a me ka hoʻāʻo ʻana ma nā wahi he nui.
ʻO ka muliwai ʻo MacArthur ma Saskatchewan ka waihona uranium nui loa a kiʻekiʻe loa hoʻi o ka honua, me kahi hana makahiki e pili ana i 8,200 ton.
ʻ .hinu wahie
E like me ka 2010, ʻo 1,750 biliona m3 nā mālama mālama kinoea a Kanada a me nā hoʻāhu lanahu, e like me antracite, bituminous a me lignite, he 6,578,000 tonnes. Hiki i nā waihona bitumen o Alberta ke kiʻi aku i 2.5 mau paona barela.
Flora a me nā holoholona
I ke kamaʻilio ʻana e pili ana i nā kumuwaiwai kūlohelohe o Kanada, ʻaʻole hiki ke haʻi ʻole ʻia i nā flora a me nā holoholona, ʻoiai ʻo ka ʻoihana hana lāʻau, ʻo kahi laʻana, ʻaʻole ia ka hope ma ka hoʻokele waiwai o ka ʻāina.
A no laila, uhi ʻia ka hapa o ka ʻāina o ka ʻāina me nā ululāʻau hānau o nā ʻano coniferous a deciduous waiwai nui: Douglas, larch, spruce, balsam fir, ʻoka, poplar, birch a me ka maple maoli. Piha ka underbrush i nā kumu lāʻau me nā hua he nui - blueberry, blackberry, raspberries a me nā mea ʻē aʻe.
Ua lilo ka tundra i wahi noho no nā bear polar, reindeer a me tundolf wolf. I nā ululāʻau Taiga ʻāhiu, nui nā elks, nā puaʻa hihiu, nā bea ʻeleʻele, nā bea, nā ʻūlū, a me nā ʻili hihi.
ʻO nā holoholona hulu nā mea nui o ka ʻoihana, e like me ka fox, fox arctic, squirrel, mink, marten a me ka hare.
