Rocks are naturally occurring solid aggregates of different minerals
![Page 10: Mineral and Metallurgy CHEM31122 - acscience.kln.ac.lk/Chemistry/Teaching_Resources/Documents/Mineral... · -Metals and Metallurgy ... Native copper Native gold. Beryl Quartz SiO](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042708/5aa00f397f8b9a8e178d8613/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
An ore is a mineral or aggregate of minerals from which a valuable constituent, especially a metal, can be profitably mined or extracted
OresMetal distribution in the earth depends on geologic processes that have taken place. Some processes may form minerals with high metal contents
be profitably mined or extracted
The value of an ore depends on,-how much metal is in the ore-how costly is it to remove the metal from the ore
-depends on the demand of the metal

The occurrence and distribution of concentrated deposits of metals often play a role ininternational politics as nations compete foraccess to these materials
![Page 12: Mineral and Metallurgy CHEM31122 - acscience.kln.ac.lk/Chemistry/Teaching_Resources/Documents/Mineral... · -Metals and Metallurgy ... Native copper Native gold. Beryl Quartz SiO](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042708/5aa00f397f8b9a8e178d8613/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Many processes are used to obtain pure metal from ore.
Some need to go through only a few steps, while other ores must go through many steps.
Copper and gold were probably the first metals man learned to use. They occur in metals man learned to use. They occur in nature in a free state as well as in ores.

Colour
The most common elements affecting colour are: chromium, iron, manganese, titanium and copper.
Minerals tend to occur in a range of colours, and color patterns help to identify them
chromium, iron, manganese, titanium and copper.

Streak
• When minerals are scratched, the powder that is made by the scratch is called the streak.
• Sometimes the color of the streak can be used to identify the mineral.
• Eg. Haemetite a black mineral has a red streak. No other black mineral has a red streak.

Magnetic Property
-Magnetic properties are useful foridentifying a mineral.
-Several minerals react when placedwithin a magnetic field.
-Some minerals are strongly attracted to the magnet, others are weakly attracted, and some minerals are actually repelled.
Magnetism refers to the reaction of a mineral in a magnetic field.
