Extraction and refining The extraction of copper from ore is normally carried out in three major steps. The first step, mineral processing, is to liberate the copper minerals and remove waste constituents—such as alumina, limestone, pyrite, and silica—so that the copper minerals and other nonferrous minerals of value are concentrated into ...

The tonnage of each block is calculated by dividing the volume by the specific gravity of the block. The extraction process and final pit limit are the main design concerns for limestone mines. After blending raw material from a near mine, the extraction process should be carried out in a way that respects the requirements of the cement factory.

The extraction of iron from its ore is the third and the penultimate process in metallurgy, which is the process of separating metals from their ores. The common ores of iron are iron oxides. These oxides can be reduced to iron by heating them with carbon in the form of coke. Heating coal in the absence of air produces coke.

Limestone is a sedimentary rock composed of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Limestone comes from the shells of dead marine organisms such as clams, oysters, crayfish, brachiopods, bryozoa, crinoids and corals. Such animals live on the bottom of the sea and after death their shells accumulate into piles, forming beds of limestone.
