3. The forms in which metals are found in the crust of the
earth and as seabed deposits depend on their reactivity
with their environment, particularly with oxygen, sulfur,
and carbon dioxide. Gold and platinum metals are found
principally in the native or metallic form. Silver, copper,
and mercury are found native as well as in the form of
sulfides, carbonates, and chlorides. The more reactive
metals are always in compound form, such as the oxides
and sulfides of iron and the oxides and silicates of
aluminum and beryllium.

9.  It makes mineral resources profitable.
 It increases the value of the ore by
removing gangue.
 It allows for increased mining
production.
 It supports the extractive metallurgy
industry by minimizing metallurgical
losses.

10.  It’s less costly (when compared to direct purification of
mineral ore).
 If done mechanically (by crushing, grinding, agitation,
screening, gravity separation, magnetic separation, or
electrostatic separation) it’s eco-friendly.
 It recycles old mines tailings products.
 It produces contaminant-free, clean, industrial
materials.

Impact on the Biological Environment
Long-term Supplies of Mineral
Resources

12. This very brief outline of the applications of ore microscopy in mineral
technology serves only to illust rate the great importance of this area of
application. The increasing world demand for metals necessitates the
economic extraction of metals from ores of lower and lower grades, which
requires efficient. skilled beneficiation . Thus, careful study under the
reflected-light microscope of the ore and of the products of various
commination and separation processes is necessary. If, following initial
disco very; exploratory drilling to determine overall size,grade, and geo
logical setting mineralogical analysis to establish feasibility of metal
extraction; and pilot testing of the extraction processes, it is decided to
proceed with a mining ope ration, the ore micro scopist is still needed to
monitor variations in the mineralogy of the ore and the effects of such
variations on processing.
