Does mining ores get geothermal energy?

No, it doesn't. Mining and geothermal energy applications generally happen at different locations. To cite one example, Iceland taps geothermal energy to do a lot of heating there. They don't really mine anything. In the big open pit mines where ores of copper, aluminum and other metals are removed, we don't see any geothermal energy being tapped or any geothermal power plants in operation nearby. It may be notable to cite that some of the gold mines of South Africa are places where geothermal energy makes conditions in the deep shafts and drifts uncomfortably hot. But the miners are there for the ore, and no one is really interested in the geothermal possibilities.
