The general term we use for the recovery of the raw materials from which we recover minerals or win metal is mining. To find out more about mining, use the link below to the related question "How is mining done?"
Iron ore is extracted from the ground through a process known as mining. This involves drilling, blasting, and excavating the ore from the earth's crust. Once the iron ore is extracted, it is crushed and processed to remove impurities before being shipped to steel mills for further refinement and processing.
It is difficult to determine the exact amount of ore that has been mined on Earth, as mining activities are ongoing and continuous. However, it is estimated that a substantial portion of Earth's ore deposits has been extracted due to centuries of mining operations.
A deposit of ore is typically called a mineral deposit or an ore deposit. These are natural concentrations of one or more minerals within the Earth's crust that can be economically extracted for their valuable elements.
Yes, iron ore is a natural mineral that is mined from the earth. It is a source of iron, which is extracted and processed to create various iron and steel products for industrial and commercial use.
ore deep beneath earth's surface is mined by drilling holes in the earth's crust so that mines can be built for excavation in which the ore is generally mined near but not to close to the base of a dormant volcano as not to activate the volcano.
That is called deep mining.

Mining: Ore is extracted from the earth. Processing: The ore is processed to extract the valuable minerals. Refining: The extracted minerals are further purified to remove impurities. Manufacturing: The refined minerals are used to create useful products.
Iron is mined by it's ore, which is usually an oxide, like rust. This is shown by it's red earth characteristic. There are two types, earth or rocky ore. The rocky ore is heated with coal to remove the oxides via redox reaction, while earth has to be refined before heating. Rocks are usually blasted by explosives and carted away, while earth ores are dug up by cartloads.

An ore is any material that helps support life on Earth.
Zinc ore is typically mined through a process that involves drilling, blasting, crushing, and transporting the ore to the surface. The ore is then processed to extract the zinc through various methods such as froth flotation, smelting, or electrolysis. Once extracted, the zinc is refined and purified for various industrial uses.

Alloys are a mixture of two or more metals. Man made alloys include brass and bronze. In nature alloys occur in almost any case there a metallic ore is found. Gold contains traces of lead, nickel ore contains many other metals and copper ore is specifically treated to remove more valuable metals present in the ore.
