What natural resources are on Mount Everest?

There are no natural resources of commercial interest on Mount Everest. The mountain is composed mostly of rock and ice, with some areas of thin soil. The altitude and harsh climate make it difficult for plants and animals to survive, so the biodiversity is limited. Some of the plants that can be found on Mount Everest include mosses, lichens, and a few species of flowering plants. The animals that can be found on the mountain include snow leopards, Tibetan wolves, and Himalayan marmots.
