What is meant by - smelting?
Smelting is the process which ore goes through so that a metal can be extracted from it. It involves heating the rock to very high temperatures. Copper, for instance, can be extracted at temperatures of about 1200 °C.Actually, smelting is a process when a metal which is more reactive than copper needs to be extracted. For example, zinc is more reactive than copper so it has to be extracted smelting. It can be extracted by heating its ore with charcoal aka smelting.--different person
