He nui nā pono kūlohelohe o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa. ʻO kēia nā mauna, nā kahawai, nā loko, a me kekahi ʻano honua holoholona. Eia nō naʻe, hana nui nā minelala i waena o nā kumuwaiwai ʻē aʻe.
Nā kumuwaiwai Mineral
ʻO ka mea mana nui ma waena o nā fossil US ka wahie a me ka paʻakikī ikehu. I ka ʻāina, noho ʻia ka hapa nui o nā panalāʻau e kahi ipu wai kahi e maina ʻia ai ka lānahu. Aia nā panalāʻau i ka Apana Appalachian a me Rocky Mountains, a ma ka ʻāina Central Plains. ʻAi ʻia ma aneʻi nā lignite a me nā lānahu coking. Aia kekahi mau mālama o ke kinoea a me ka aila maoli. Ma ʻAmelika, ua ʻeli ʻia lākou ma Alaska, ma ke awāwa ʻo Mexico a ma kekahi o nā wahi o ka ʻāina (ma Kaleponi, Kansas, Michigan, Missouri, ʻIlika, a pēlā aku.). E pili ana i nā mālama o "gula ʻeleʻele", kū ka mokuʻāina i ka lua ma ka honua.
ʻO ka mea hao kekahi kumu waiwai nui ʻē aʻe no ka hoʻokele waiwai ʻAmelika. Hoʻohui ʻia lākou ma Michigan a me Minnesota. Ma ke ʻano laulā, ʻeli ʻia nā hematites kiʻekiʻe ma aneʻi, kahi o ka hao ma kahi o 50%. Ma waena o nā minelala ʻē aʻe, pono ke haʻi ʻia ke keleawe. ʻO ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa ka pae ʻelua ma ka honua i ka unuhi ʻana o kēia metala.
Nui a hewahewa nā ormet polymetallic i ka ʻāina. ʻO kahi laʻana, ʻeli ʻia nā ores kēpau-zinc i nā puke nui. Nui nā waihona a me nā ʻaina uranium. ʻO ka unuhi ʻana o ka apatite a me ka phosphorite he mea nui. ʻO ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa ke kūlana ʻelua ma nā ʻōlelo no ke kālā a me ka mining gula. Eia kekahi, he waihona ko ka ʻāina o ka tungsten, platinum, vera, molybdenum a me nā minelala ʻē aʻe.
Nā kumuwaiwai ʻāina a me nā meaola
Aia ma waenakonu o ka ʻāina he lepo ʻeleʻele momona, a aneane pau lākou i ka mahi ʻia e ka poʻe. ʻO nā ʻanoʻano like ʻole, nā mea kanu ʻoihana a me nā mea kanu e ulu ma aneʻi. Noho nui ʻia kahi ʻāina e nā wahi holoholona. ʻO nā kumuwaiwai ʻāina ʻē aʻe (hema a ʻākau paha) ʻaʻole kūpono ia no ka mahiʻai, akā hoʻohana lākou i nā ʻenehana mahiʻai ʻokoʻa, i ʻae iā ʻoe e hōʻiliʻili i nā hōʻiliʻili maikaʻi.
Ma kahi o 33% o ka ʻāina ʻo ʻAmelika e noho ʻia e nā ululāʻau, kahi waiwai a ka lāhui. ʻO ke kumu, aia nā kaiaolaola i hoʻohui ʻia, kahi e ulu ai nā birch a me nā ʻoka me nā pine. I ke kūkulu hema o ka ʻāina, ʻoi aku ka māno o ke aniau, no laila nā magnolias a me nā mea kanu kāpili i loaʻa ma aneʻi. Ma nā wahi o nā wao akua a me nā waoakua, ulu nā cacti, nā succulents, a me nā semi-shrubs.
Pili ka ʻokoʻa o ka honua holoholona i nā wahi kūlohelohe. ʻO ka USA kahi home o nā raccoons a me nā minks, skunks a me nā ferrets, nā bea a me nā lemmings, nā ʻīlio hae a me nā ʻalopeke, nā dia a me nā bea, nā bison a me nā lio, nā moʻo, nā moʻo, nā ʻeneka a me nā manu he nui.
