The iron ore is refined into iron, The molten iron is then alloyed (mixed) with other molten metals, commonly chromium and nickel, along with carbon. There are different mixes to produce stainless steel with different properties. It is not truly stainless, but is stain RESISTANT and rust RESISTANT.

Who process topurify iron ore and produce steel?
1 iron ore and 2 coal ore, use on furnace and makes a steel bar.
Which metal ore do you m ine to extract steel?
No ore contains steel. However, IRON ore, such as taconite, produces iron. When alloyed with other metals and carbon, it becomes steel.
Why is iron and steel mineral based?
Iron comes from iron ore. Iron ore is a compound of Iron and oxygen. A similar compound is called rust. The ore is mined in the ground. It used to be made in large blast furnaces. The iron ore would be mixed with coke (a product made from coal). They would be placed in the blast furnace. Then the furnace would be started and Iron would flow out the bottom. Steel would be produced by adding other metals to the iron and removing some of the carbon.
Where is the mineral iron used?
Iron ore is used to make steel
What happens to the element in iron ore when the ore is mixed with carbon and heated?
Iron ores most often contain iron combined with oxygen. The carbon comes from a material called coke, which is made from coal. When heated, the carbon reacts with oxygen in the ore, leaving the purified iron metal behind.
What ore is steel refined from?
Steel is made from iron ore and carbon.
Which best describes stainless steel mixture or element or ore or mineral?
Stainless steel mixture, element, ore or mineral is an ally of iron and carbon. The carbon is the primary alloying element.
What does ore get made into?
Ore can be turned into steel and iron
What are uses of recycled steel?
Recycled steel is just as good as fresh steel made from iron ore from the earth. So recycled steel can be used to make anything. Vehicles, bridges, stainless steel, everything!

What is made out of iron ore?
For one, the key word in the mineral itself. Iron. Steel is also made from iron ore, or rather the refined version, iron.
Where steel mined or made?
Steel is manufactured. Iron ore is mined and turned into iron. Then the iron is mixed with other metals and materials to get steel.
Why were steel industries so close to the great lakes?
The iron ore is found in the area and to make steel iron ore is used. It made sense to make the furnace near the ore .
