Over the last decade, natural resource wealth accounted for between 12% and 19% of Canada's total wealth ( Chart 1 ). Natural resources not only generate wealth but also contribute raw materials to create other types of wealth such as buildings, bridges, machinery and equipment.

Answer:

They provide materials that we use to create manufactured items such as wood tables, pens/pencils and e.t.c.

Sorry if this was not the answer your looking for i'm in grade 7 ;P

Wood tables come from wood, people buy wood tables. Thus making our economy richer. Same with pens and pencils.
