What is the waste material that must be separated from an ore?

What mineral sticks to grease during separation from ore?

For a mineral to be considered an ore it must meet what?
For a mineral to be considered an ore, it must contain a sufficient concentration of a valuable metal or mineral that can be economically extracted. Additionally, it should be present in a form that allows for efficient extraction and processing. The overall economic feasibility of mining and processing the ore is also a critical factor in its classification.
A mineral is classified as an ore as long as?
It is considered an ore as long as the locallized concentration of the mineral exceeds its crustal abondance.
What is an unrefined mineral?
An unrefined mineral is a natural substance mined from the earth that has not undergone any processing or purification. It typically contains impurities and has not been refined to extract valuable components.
