National resources: it is a resource in which only nation (government) have right to extract it out from the place where it is.

For example, Urban development authorities. All the minerals, water, forests, wildlife, land within the political boundaries and oceanic area upto 12 nautical miles from the coast termed as territorial water belong to the nation.

International resources: in these resources most of the country have rights to take it out.

The oceanic resources beyond 200 nautical miles of the exclusive economic zone belong to the open oceans and no individual country can utilise these resources without the consent of international institutions e.g. India has the right to use the manganese nodules from the bed of the Indian ocean which lie beyond the exclusive economic zone.
