That would be the mineral diamond.
An ore is a portion of a mineral deposit that can be economically extracted at the present time. A mineral deposit is a concentration of naturally occurring material that is potentially economic to extract.
An ore is a rock or mineral from which a valuable metal can be obtained through refining processes.
1. get a mineral 2. separate mineral from ore 3. seperater ore from mineral 4. record observation
Metals are generally mined in the form of ore. Ore is processed to extract the metal from the ore (known as smelting)
Diamond is a mineral and a gem. The main ore of diamond is called kimberlite.
Diamond is a special molecular arrangement of carbon, a mineral.

A mineral resource that can be mined and processed at a profit is called an ore.

Diamond is an allotrope of the element carbon, so may be classified as a mineral (it can be colored by elemental impurities). About 20% of all diamonds mined are gem-quality stones, leaving the remainder to be classified as industrial diamonds. Diamond is not an ore.
No. It comes from the ore iron which is a mineral.
1. Copper ore is mined and crushed. 2. It must be processed to remove the useful mineral or element. 3. Smelting is the process used to obtain copper. In the smelting the ore is melted and material are removed. After smelting, the copper is refined ,or purified. 4. Then it is made into many types of products used in homes, businesses, and industry.
Minerals and groups of minerals can be classified as an ore when they contain a sufficient amount of desired material, most times metals, to be extracted and processed feasibly.
Carbon is a mineral with many different allotropes (structurally different arrangements of the same compound) some of which are found in the Earth's crust (eg. Graphite and Diamond). An ore is a type of rock that contains important minerals such as gold ore or diamond ore.Usually the term 'ore' is reserved to rocks containing economically useful metals but 'carbon ore' is not a contradiction.
