electrolytic reduction-reducing the oxidation state of a material through the application of current.
example would be electroplating, where metal is 'reduced' onto a cathode from a metal salt.
electrolytic refining-refining of a metal by electrolysis, the crude metal used as the anode going into solution
pure metal being deposited upon the cathode — called also electrolytic refining.
mineral-naturally occuring inorganic substances
ore-material from which minerals are extracted
