define minerals, Ore and gauge.
Answers
the naturally occuring compounds of elements are known as mineral
the mineral from which an element can be extracted easily and profitably is called an ore
the impurities present in ore such as sand rock etc is known as gangue
Answer:
- Minerals:
In geology and mineralogy, a mineral or mineral species is, broadly speaking, a solid chemical compound with a fairly well-defined chemical composition and a specific crystal structure, that occurs naturally in pure form.
- Ore
Ore is natural rock or sediment that contains one or more valuable minerals, typically metals, that can be mined, treated and sold at a profit. Ore is extracted from the earth through mining and treated or refined, often via smelting, to extract the valuable metals or minerals.
- Gauge
A gauge, in science and engineering, is a device used to make measurements or in order to display certain dimensional information. A wide variety of tools exist which serve such functions, ranging from simple pieces of material against which sizes can be measured to complex pieces of machinery.
