Metallurgy A mineral is a naturally occurring substance with a range of chemical compositions. An ore is a mineral deposit concentrated enough to allow economical recovery of a desired metal. An alloy is a solid solution either of two or more metals, or of a metal or metals with one or more nonmetals. Metallurgy is the science and technology of separating metals from their ores and of compounding alloys. Recovery of a metal from its ore: 1. Preparation of the ore 2. Production of the metal 3. Purification of the metal 2 Principal Types of Minerals Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education. Permission required for reproduction or display.
