Because you need heat
Because the Tin Ore contains Tin oxide which is a mixture of 2 oxygen (O²) atoms and 1 tin atom (Sn), making the formula for tin ore SnO². Because the atoms are joined making a compound you cant seperate them just by crushing because it will just crush both atoms not just the tin. So you need another atom to come and take the oxygen. Which if you use charcoal (which contains carbon) and smelter you get Tin and carbon dioxide instead of having tin ore and charcoal!
(Basically you cant physically seperate them like that because they are joined!)
To separate Tin from Tin Ore you have to heat it to combine the compounds together. Also if you combine Tin Ore with copper it makes a bronze bar. :)
from tin ore
Tin is extracted from its ore by heating it with carbon or carbon monoxide.
Tin mined as an ore and then smelted to produce metallic tin.
Tin is produced by the carbothermic reduction of the ore, usually an oxide, with carbon or coke.
because you need heat to combine the compounds together
The name for tin ore is "Tin Ore." There is no other name for tin ore..... Also, you can combine a tin ore to a copper ore to make a bronze bar. :)
The mineral cassiterite is an ore of tin.
you heat the tin ore and carbon together to produce tin and carbon dioxide

the ore used to make tin is casserite. related to science

The only commercially recovered ore of tin is casserite, with contains an oxide of tin (SnO2). Use the link below to check facts and learn more.
