Pure native metals are considered minerals. Mixed metals are considered alloys.
Ores are metals and rocks are minerals.
Metallic ores provide the raw materials for the production of metals.
They may be called "ores" but the term includes other minerals that contain valuable elements that are not metals.
Mined of metal ores depend on the position of the metal in electrochemical or activity series but metals can be extract through electrolysis and reduction process.
Minerals from which metals and nonmetals can be removed in usable amounts are called ores.
Carbon is a mineral with many different allotropes (structurally different arrangements of the same compound) some of which are found in the Earth's crust (eg. Graphite and Diamond). An ore is a type of rock that contains important minerals such as gold ore or diamond ore.Usually the term 'ore' is reserved to rocks containing economically useful metals but 'carbon ore' is not a contradiction.
No, not all rocks can be referred to as ores. Ores are rocks or minerals that contain sufficient quantity of a sought-after material, like metals, that can be extracted and processed for use. So, while all ores are rocks, not all rocks are considered ores.
Yes metals are found in rocks called ores. Most metals are more reactive and are found combined with other elements in rocks.
Yes, you do because you need 2 or more elements or minerals to make metals and ores are lots and lots of minerals.
Yes and No, while some metal ores may indeed be vein minerals, not all vein minerals are metal ores and not all metal ores are vein minerals.
Rocks and Minerals that contain elements extracted through mining are called Ores. The rocks that contain the minerals are called ores, The minerals that they contain are called ore minerals, and are extracted to be processed in order to recover whatever element it is that is being mined.
They are called ores.
Metal ores are rocks with metal in them. The ore can be extracted in a furnace by heating the ore, coke and limestone at a very high temperature. The molten metal is then collected off.
Metallic ores provide the raw materials for the production of metals.
Metallic ores provide the raw materials for the production of metals.
Geology is the study of rocks, minerals, ores and earth processes.
Mineral reources,such as metals,ores,and some kind of rocks
They may be called "ores" but the term includes other minerals that contain valuable elements that are not metals.
