as per the reactivity series, Potassium to Aluminium are separated by electrolysis of molten ore... Zinc to copper are extracted by two processes - Calcination and Roasting then reduction and purification of metal... and Silver and Gold are separated from its sulphide ores by Roasting then refining

Answer:
The method used to extract a metal from its ore depends upon the stability of its compound in the ore, which in turn depends upon the reactivity of the metal. ... Reduction with carbon is often used to extract these metals and requires less energy to reduce them to extract the metal.
