25. Extractionofthemetalfromtheconcentratedore.Themetalisextractedfromthe

concentratedorebythefollowingsteps:

(i)Conversionoftheconcentratedoreintoitsoxide.Thisisusuallydoneby

calcinationandroastingprocess.Themethoddependsuponthenatureoftheore.A

carbonateoreisconvertedintooxidebycalcinationwhileasulphideoreisconverted

intooxidebyroasting.

(ii)Conversionofoxidetometalbyreductionprocess.

(i)Conversionoforeintometaloxide:Itcanbedonebytwomethods

(a)Calcination:Itistheprocessofheatingtheconcentratedoreintheabsenceofair.

Thecalcinationprocessisusedtoremovedvolatileimpurities,waterfromthe



hydratedoresandtoconvertcarbonateoresintometaloxide.

Forexample:

ii)Mercuricoxideisheatedtoabout300oCanditdecomposestogivemercurymetal.

II)Chemicalreduction:Themetaloxidesfromcalcinationorroastingprocessesare

reducedtofreemetalbyusingchemicalagentslikecarbon,aluminium,sodiumor

calcium.

(a)Reductionwithcarbon:Theoxidesofmoderatelyreactivemetalslikezinc,

copper,nickle,tin,leadetc.canbereducedbyusingcarbonasreducingagent.Inthis

process,themetaloxideismixedwithcokeandheatedinafurnace.Carbonreduces

themetaloxidetofreemetal.
