The two other methods of reduction used in metallurgy are reduction of the ore with carbon and reduction of the molten ore by electrolysis.
(b) Only reactive metals are used in electrolysis process of metallurgy because these metals react fast and complete the reduction process faster than less reactive metals.
Faster reaction offers better ROI in commercial metallurgy process, hence reactive metals re preferred.
