Hey dear here is your answer,

Roasting is the process in which the ore is heated below its melting point in

presence of air to oxidise the impurities. eg: carbon, sulphur etc removed as

their gaseous oxides. 

Calcination is the process of heating the ore below its melting point an

absence of air to remove volatile impurities like arsenic.

Hope it was helpful

lpapyadav: thanks dear
dxx: roasting in presence of oxygen and calcination in presence of co2
lpapyadav: okk
Ama02: wlc
Ama02: no it occurs fully in the absence of air

Metals in the middle of the activity series are found in there sulphides or carbonates in nature and it is much more easier to abstain metals from their oxides as compared to their sulphides or carbonates. Therefore we use the processes of RAOSTING and CALCINATION to reduce these sulphides and carbonates into the metal oxides.

ROASTING:- The sulphide ores are converted into their oxides by heating strongly in the presence of excess air

CALCINATION:- The process used to change the metal carbonates into their oxide form by heating strongly in limited air.
