Answer:

B. Gold, silver, and spices

Step-by-step explanation:

Explorers went on journeys for the 3 Gs: gold, God, and glory. They wanted to become wealthy, spread Christianity, and gain fame. They originally sought a trade route to Asia for the valuable goods, metals, spices, and jewels there, but we know the explorers ended up in the Americas.

So, the resources the explorers wanted were gold, silver, and spices. Therefore the correct answer choice is B.
