The basic process to extract iron from ores is to oxidize the ore into iron oxides (such as FeO, Fe2O3, etc.). The iron oxides are melted and mixed with charcoal or coke (carbon from purified coal). The reaction for Fe(III)oxide is:
2Fe2O3 + 3C ---> 4Fe + 3CO2
Typically the molten product was pored into ingots known as pig iron.

How do you extract iron from iron sulphide?
It is Paxton
Who extracted iron?
Miners extract iron ore from the ground.
What metal do you extract from haematite?

Which element is used to extract iron?
Carbon is commonly used to extract iron from its ore through a process called smelting. Carbon reacts with the oxygen present in the iron ore, reducing it to metallic iron.
Does Marmite or Yeast Extract have iron in it?

What is used in the furnace to extract the iron?
blast furnace
How can you extract iron ore from iron pyrite?
It's possible to do so (if you mean extract iron from iron pyrite) , but because pyrite is exothermic, it creates a hazard in mines. Also, it is much more economical to extract iron from other minerals. Pyrite is also geologically unstable, and will eventually turn into sulfurous minerals and actually viable iron ores, so it is best left for future mines. Pyrite is really only worth it for making sulfuric acid or jewelry.
What element is the blast furnace used to extract?
