Introduction. Aluminum is too high in the electrochemical series (reactivity series) to extract it from its ore using carbon reduction. The temperatures needed are too high to be economic. Instead, it is extracted by electrolysis. The ore is first converted into pure aluminum oxide by the Bayer Process, and this is then electrolyzed in solution in molten cryolite another aluminum compound.

The process by which Zinc is extracted from its ore for the preparation of Zinc metal is known as Zinc mining. The most common ore of Zinc is Zinc blende which is a mineral of Zinc Sulphide. Other ores of Zinc are Calamine, Zincite, etc. Earlier, the extraction of Zinc was a very difficult process due to its low melting point.

In pyrometallurgy, an ore is heated with a reductant to obtain the metal. Theoretically, it should be possible to obtain virtually any metal from its ore by using coke, an inexpensive form of crude carbon, as the reductant. An example of such a reaction is as follows: () C a O ( s) + C ( s) → Δ C a ( l) + C O ( g) Unfortunately, many ...
