Are ores and rocks minerals or metals?
Ores are mineral deposits that contain metals in concentrated form. Rocks can also contain minerals, but not all rocks are considered to be minerals. Metals are elements that are typically extracted from ores through mining and processing.
Can all rocks be referred to as ores?
No, not all rocks can be referred to as ores. Ores are rocks or minerals that contain sufficient quantity of a sought-after material, like metals, that can be extracted and processed for use. So, while all ores are rocks, not all rocks are considered ores.
Are vein minerals metal deposits that occur in cracks in rocks?
Yes and No, while some metal ores may indeed be vein minerals, not all vein minerals are metal ores and not all metal ores are vein minerals.
What r ores?
ores are the minerals that are underground that you have to cook in order to be a mineral.
Why is gangue cosidered an ore?
Gangue minerals are not considered ores because they do not contain valuable minerals that can be extracted profitably. Ores, on the other hand, contain valuable minerals in high enough concentrations to be economically recovered. Gangue is typically separated from the ore during the mineral processing stage.
What are 4 different types of mining?
Surface mining: extracting minerals or ores from the surface of the Earth. Underground mining: extracting minerals or ores from beneath the Earth's surface. Placer mining: extracting minerals or ores from rivers, streams, or other sediment deposits. Submarine mining: extracting minerals or ores from the seabed.

How do you get metal out of ores?
Yes, you do because you need 2 or more elements or minerals to make metals and ores are lots and lots of minerals.
What is the difference between mineral and ore?
Minerals are naturally occurring inorganic solids with a crystalline structure and a definite range of chemical formula. Ores are concentrations of minerals in rock that are high enough to be economically extracted for use. All ores are minerals, but all minerals are not necessarily ores.A mineral is a solid chemical substance, and ore is a rock that contains minerals.
Why are minerals mined only in those regions where they occur in the form of ores?
Minerals are mined in regions where they occur as ores because ores have a higher concentration of the desired mineral, making extraction more economical and feasible. Mining in regions where minerals occur as ores also reduces the need for extensive processing to extract the desired mineral.
What can useful minerals be found from?
it can be found in ores
Is ores a source of lumber?
