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.
We found a rich deposit of iron ore.
== 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 gold content of an ore rock is determined through a process called assaying, where a sample of the rock is analyzed to determine the amount of gold present in it. This is usually done through fire assay or chemical analysis methods to accurately quantify the gold content. The results are expressed as grams of gold per ton of ore rock.
bauxite is a rock that contains a high concentration of aluminum minerals, namely gibbsite, boehmite, and diaspore. These minerals can be extracted and processed to obtain aluminum metal, making bauxite an economically valuable resource.
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.
The rock would be considered an ore.
The rock would be considered an 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.
Yes! It is rock that is not ore, but surrounds the ore.
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.
Ore is the correct spelling.
the mining of ore is when you get ore from a rock you mine anywhere in runescape.
An ore rock is a rock that contains valuable minerals or metals that can be extracted and processed for industrial purposes. These minerals are often in high enough concentration to make mining and processing economically feasible. Examples of ore rocks include gold ore, iron ore, and copper ore.
its not a rock its an ore
Its considered an ore when it contains enough of a useful substance that it can be sold
