The Industrial Chemist doesn't, though may discover the process or improvements to it. The smelting-plant or refinery and its staff carry out the operation itself.
The process for most ores is one of reduction, particularly the removal of oxygen, of the compound that is the ore mineral itself. The process is specific to the ore, as well.

The metal in rocks is metal ore. Copper ore, iron ore, and so on. In general, once the ore has been quarried or mined, the ore is crushed and smelted (heated to a high temperature) allowing the now molten metal to be retrieved. The waste rock is dumped. Further processing is needed to obtain a finished metal in as pure a state as possible.
Where do you get calcium the metal from?

What happens when making metal?
You can not actually make metal but you can obtain metal from an ore of that metal. The ore is a chemical compound of that metal and the process of smelting the ore involvesf breaking the compound up using heat and "reducing it" essentially removing oxygen - to leave the pure metal.
What are factories that make metal ores called?
Factories do not make metal ore. A refinery or smelter makes metal from metal ores.
How do you get it out of the ground and make it into the metal?
First you have to mine it which gives you ore. then the raw ore has to go through the smelting process which separates the impurities from the metal.

The type of ore will determine the type of metal. Iron ore yields Iron. Silver ore yields silver. Gold ore yields gold.
