Mine operators extract ores metal bearing rock from underground mines and surface mines using machinery explosives and chemicals Extraction processes include dressing picking sorting washing of ores milling crushing grinding etc and beneficiation processing to improve purity/quality
Extraction is the first phase of hardrock mining which consists of the initial removal of ore from the earth Beneficiation follows and is the initial attempt at liberating and concentrating the valuable mineral from the extracted ore
Mining is the activity of extracting ore from asteroids though it is also used to describe ice harvesting and more rarely gas cloud harvesting Once extracted ore can then be refined into minerals These refined substances are used in the production and maintenance of all player created items and structures in EVE such as ships and
