      Decent attempt but you can explain the distribution in more detail.
      In introduction, no need to start from minerals, you can start directly from ferrous minerals as that is what is asked.
      State wise distribution mentioned is fine.
      Next, try to mention some important regions in Odisha-Jharkhand Belt, Durg-Bastar-Chandrapur Belt, Ballari-Chitradurga-Chikkamagaluru-Tumakuru Belt,Maharashtra-Goa Belt etc.
      Further, it will be impressive if you can draw a rough India map showing ferrous minerals distribution.
      Overall, need to read a bit more about the topic.

      Keep practicing. 🙂

      Decent attempt.
      Knowledge is fine, try to arrange it better.
      Introduction is good, after that no need to mention types of iron ore in details (not asked), you can just give a passing mention of hematite and magnetite that are found in India.
      Distribution part is important, good that you have drawn a rough map. Areas mentioned are also okay. Sundergadh, Mayurbhanj (Badampahar) in Odisha, Chandrapur, Ratnagiri in Maharashtra should also find a mention.
      Try to write a concluding statement.
      Keep practicing. 🙂

      Good attempt.
      Introduction is fine.
      Distribution of iron ore part is also good, types of iron ore is not really needed, passing mention will also suffice.
      Good that you have drawn a map and labelled the areas.
      Ballari is in Karnataka, so you can make that correction. Further, areas from Maharashtra, Goa etc can also be mentioned.
      Conclusion is fine.
      Keep practicing. 🙂
