Solution

The correct option is B Huge deposits of coal and oil under layers of ice.
Even though there are limited resources and the climate is hostile in Siberian mountains, people still live there. This is because below all that layer of ice, there are huge deposits of coal and oil. And that still serves as a backbone to the Russian economy.
