The colours used in the Ajanta Caves Paintings have been derived from which of the following materials?

The colours used in the famous Ajanta Cave paintings were derived from plants and minerals. These natural pigments included red and yellow ochre from minerals, lampblack from soot, green from copper-based minerals, blue from lapis lazuli, and white from lime. The artists ground these natural materials and mixed them with binders to create vibrant, long-lasting paintings that have survived for over 2000 years.
