The simplest definition of an ore is a mixture of a metal containing mineral and other materials ('minerals') from the surrounding rocks, which can be described as impurities with respect to what you want from the ore. Metal ores are obtained by mining and that this may involve digging up and processing large amounts of rock.

Smelting involves heating up ore until the metal becomes spongy and the chemical compounds in the ore begin to break down. Most important, it releases oxygen from the iron ore, which makes up a high percentage of common iron ores. The most primitive facility used to smelt iron is a bloomery. There, a blacksmith burns charcoal with iron ore and
