Germany has many natural resources. Iron ore, coal, and potash are major products from mining. Uranium, nickel, natural gas, and copper are valuable resources too. Timber is a renewable resource. Many forests in the north have been harvested to provide land for towns, villages, and farms. About 1/3 of the land in Germany is arable.
