Before that can happen, however, the ores must be excavated from the ground. Typically, this is done through two basic techniques: sub-surface (underground) and surface mining. Surface mining is both the less expensive of the two and the go-to method when the desired minerals are located near the surface of the Earth.

view moreOpen-pit mining is the most common method used to extract iron ore. It involves using large machines to excavate large pits in the ground. The extracted iron ore is then transported to a processing plant where it is crushed and filtered to remove impurities. Strip mining Strip mining is another method used to mine iron ore.
view moreIron ore - Wikipedia. Iron ores are rocks and minerals from which metallic iron can be economically extracted. The ores are usually rich in iron oxides and vary in colour from dark grey, bright yellow, or deep purple to rusty red. The iron is usually found in the form of magnetite, hematite, goethite, limonite or siderite.
