Occurrence of Metals
The crust of the earth provides metals and it is a good source to procure metals. Mostly, the metals occur in nature in a combined state but sometimes they can also occur in the free state. A native metal is a metal found in its metallic state naturally, either in pure form or in the form of an alloy. Most metals can’t resist natural processes like oxidation, corrosion, etc. Hence, only non-reactive metals like gold, silver, platinum, etc are found in the native or free state. Most metals are obtained in the form of compounds and they need to be filtered from their impurities to be further used for various applications. The process of procuring metals from ores is called metallurgy and these naturally occurring compounds of metals are known as minerals. Metals are usually extracted from the earth by mining.
