De Re Metallica is publish by _____ in _________

Georgius Agricola, Germany

First evidence of mining and smelting

Israel, Jordan 5-6,000 BCE

may have been accidentally smelted by Campfires

Sn and Pb

Seven Metals of Antiquity

Copper Gold Iron Lead Mercury Silver Tin

material from which metal or metals can be extracted at a profit

ore

economically mineable ore deposit

orebody

any naturally occurring substance of economic value excluding metallic ores, fuels and gemstones (granite, sand, limestone, etc.)

industrial minerals

unwanted material that is intergrown with ore mineral (quartz, feldspar, etc.)

Gangue

The material associated with an ore deposit that must be mined to get at the ore and must then be discarded

Waste

Ores of the ferrous metals (iron, manganese, molybdenum, and tungsten), t h e b a s e metals (copper, lead, zinc, and tin), the precious metals (gold, silver, the platinum group of metals), and the radioactive minerals (uranium, thorium, and radium)

Metallic Ores

(also known as industrial minerals). The nonfuel mineral ores that are not associated with the production of metals. These include phosphate, potash, halite, trona, sand, gravel, limestone, sulfur, and many others

Nonmetallic Minerals

(also known as mineral fuels). The organic mineral substances that can be utilized as fuels, such as coal, petroleum, natural gas, coalbed methane, gilsonite, and tar sands.

Fossil fuels

key ingredients f o r glass, lights, magnets, batteries, and catalytic converters, and used in everything from cell phones to cars.

Rare earth elements

REEs include the light REEs (LREEs)

lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, samarium, europium, and the heavy REEs (HREES) gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium, thulium, ytterbium, lutetium, scandium and yttrium.
