by chipping the rock of the gold
.
By reduction-oxidation reaction you can extract metals, including Gold, from ore.
you take the gold out of it
you dont.
nah
Gold is formed independently from rocks so unlike iron or copper there is no 'ore' to extract it from. In general gold is acquired by finding nuggets in rocks. The gold is simply chipped off from the rock. It is extremly difficult if not impossible to extract the small traces of gold that can be found in many rocks and as far as i am aware no commercial technique for acccquiring such gold.
It is not. Gold is easier. Aluminium is energy intensive.
You cannot extract gold from salt.
Highly toxic cyanide is used to extract gold ore.
You can't extract what ain't there. Why do you think it's called FOOL'S gold? Iron Pyrites = FeS2 = Iron & Sulphur = No gold. Chalcpyrites =Cu2S = Copper & Sulphur ≠ gold.
Since gold binds with zinc, you would have to chemically extract the gold out with aqua regis.
Because gold is already found in its 'native'o or unreacted state
