Graphite is mined in an open pit or underground. In an open pit graphite is extracted using bulldozers, and front end loaders to break up and left the product. It is extracted through drilling when it is done underground.

What is role of graphite rod in electrometallurgy of Al?

In the electrometallurgy of aluminium, a fused mixture of purified alumina (Al 2 O 3 ), cryolite (Na 3 AlF 6 ) and fluorspar (CaF 2 ) is electrolysed. In this electrolysis, graphite is used as the anode and graphite-lined iron is used as the cathode. During the electrolysis, Al is liberated at the cathode, while CO and CO 2 are liberated at the anode, according to the following equation. If a metal is used instead of graphite as the anode, then O 2 will be liberated. This will not only oxidise the metal of the electrode, but also convert some of the Al liberated at the cathode back into Al 2 O 3 . Hence, graphite is used for preventing the formation of O 2 at the anode. Moreover, graphite is cheaper than other metals.
