How do we get metals?
Metals are generally mined in the form of ore. Ore is processed to extract the metal from the ore (known as smelting)
What is Balbach-Thum process?
The Balbach-Thum process is a method used in metal refining to extract gold and silver from ore. It involves melting the ore with lead to form a lead-silver-gold alloy, which is then treated to separate the precious metals. The process is known for its efficiency in recovering gold and silver.
What is the origin of lead ore?
the origin of lead ore is contact metamorphic origin
Which element is used to extract iron?
Carbon is commonly used to extract iron from its ore through a process called smelting. Carbon reacts with the oxygen present in the iron ore, reducing it to metallic iron.
Which metal ore do you m ine to extract steel?
Iron ore is the metal ore mined to extract steel. Iron ore is a key raw material used in the production of steel through a process called smelting, where the iron ore is heated with coke and limestone in a blast furnace to remove impurities and create steel.
Which ore is aluminum extract from?
which ore is aluminum extracted from
What is the definition of refining an ore?
To refine an ore means to extract the valuable metal that is inside the ore.
Where do you extract copper?
Copper Ore.
How do we get metals?

How do you take Ore out of the earth?
you extract it with a picaxe
Is lead an ore?
Lead is not an ore. Lead is a metal which is obtained by refining lead ore (or which may be a byproduct of the refinement of other metals).
Characteristics of a mineral to an ore mineral?
A mineral that is useful and economically viable to extract and purify is an ore.
Which metal ore do you mine to extract magnesium?
Dolomite
How do miners extract minerals from an ore?
To extract minerals there are three steps. These steps are mining, smelting, refining. First, the ore must be mined. Then it goes to a process where it is smelted to extract the minerals. Finally, it is refined where the mineral is purified.
What mineral has lead ore in it?
the mineral with the ore of lead is galena
Why can't you extract lead from lead oxide but you can with mercury and mercury oxide?
actually you can still extract lead from lead oxide, but you need to do this experiment with carbon or other reducing agent e.g. hydrogen and with a high temperature Celsius. But the reason that you can extract the mercury from the mercury oxides exactly is the higher reactivity of the lead. higher the reactivity means more difficult to extract the metals from the ore. so it is possible for lead to extract it from the lead oxide
Describe the method of purification of copper?
The method used to extract Cu from its ore depends on the nature of the ore.
