What to Focus On
- Metals occur in the earth’s crust mainly as minerals and ores.
- Ore is a mineral from which metal can be extracted economically.
- Gold, silver, and copper can occur in native state.
- Ores are classified as oxide, sulphide, chloride, carbonate, or sulphate ores.
- Ore type helps decide the extraction method.
- Many sulphide and carbonate ores must first be converted into oxides.
- Gangue is the unwanted impurity in an ore.
- Concentration removes gangue before extraction.
- Froth flotation is used for sulphide ores.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
All minerals are ores.
Aluminium is extracted from any aluminium-containing mineral because it is the most common metal in the Earth's crust.
Metals found in nature are usually in the free state because metals are always unreactive.
