Question

Define Ore in detail?

Answer 1

Hey mate here is your answer

An Ore is a naturally occurring solid material from which a metal or valuable mineral can be extracted profitably. Ore refers to the original material mined before it is processed. Take for example copper ore, a copper ore will have about 3% copper when just mined. This ore will then be processed during which time some waste will be removed thus increasing the copper content to about 30% for concentrate which is later smelted to 98% and finally refined to 99.99% copper cathode.
