Copper ore is called CHALCOPYRITE.
To separate copper from its ore, the process is called smelting. The copper and ore are heated and the copper turns to liquid which is then poured from the smelter.
It depends upon nature of ore the most common ore of copper is Copper pyrite CuFeS2. the extraction of copper from this ore involves the following steps, 1-crushing, 2-grinding, 3-concentration of ore, 4-roastiong, 5-smelting, 6- preparation of blister copper and 7- electrorefining of blister copper.
