Zinc ore =Calamine
Calamine=zinc carbonate
.
1= Zinc occurs as zinc carbonate in Calamine Ore (ZnCO3) so in order to extract Zinc metal from its zinc carbonate, this zinc carbonate should be first converted into zinc oxide. this is done by calcination Calamine Ore is heated strongly in the absence of air that is when Calamine is calcined to form zinc oxide and carbon dioxide
2= zinc metal is extracted by reduction of its oxide with carbon thus when zinc oxide is heated with carbon zinc metal is produced
