An ore is a rock that bears minerals containing valuable elements. Most rock can be considered to be an ore although the classification is usually reserved for rock that has sufficient concentrations of elements to make it worth mining and separating.
Rocks must contain valuable elements in order to be considered ores. These elements are often metals that are mined from the rock.
A rock is an ore if it contains a metallic compound, usually a compound containing a metal and oxygen, called a metal oxide.
yes
Petroleum is an oil. Gold ore is a golden ore rock, of sorts.Hope it is better than, "because it is."
An ore is a rock that contains minerals that are useful. For an ore to be considered an ore reserve, it must be economically viable (the value of the extracted mineral must exceed the cost of extraction and processing) and must be technically and legally possible to extract.
yes an aluminium is an ore, it it found in a rock and can be extracted very easily
By EPMA
== An ore would be a rock formation rich enough in particular minerals to be economically excavated and extracted for those particular minerals or elements. The extraction of minerals is not the predominant purpose of coal excavation. The main use of coal is for generation of power through burning. Rather than an ore it is considered a fuel.
The rock would be considered an ore.
The rock would be considered an ore.
Yes! It is rock that is not ore, but surrounds the ore.
Minerals are minerals. An ore is a rock matrix that has a rather large amount of a certain mineral in it, hence "Iron ore", Silver ore", etc.
No. An ore is generally considered to be a body of rock from which a sufficiently profitable amount of metal can be obtained after chemical or mechanical separation of its constituents.
Ore is rock from which a metal or valuable mineral can be extracted. Iron ore, copper ore are two examples.
Retrieve a pickaxe and press on a rock. You will commence mining if there is ore in the rock.
Slate is not an ore; it is a metamorphic rock.
Ore is the correct spelling.
the mining of ore is when you get ore from a rock you mine anywhere in runescape.
Many rocks contain minerals that contain metallic elements. Rocks that contain metallic elements that can be economically refined into quantities of useful metals are called metallic ores. Bauxite, for instance, is the common rock ore which is refined to produce the metal aluminum.
a copper ore is ither a metamorphic, sedimentary or igneious rock
