Q: Explain briefly the extraction of Al from
bauxite.
A: Al can be extracted either from red bauxite
or from white bauxite. Powdered bauxite is
concentrated by NaOH at 35 bar pressure
and 200C 250C temperature.

Q: What is 'matte'?
A: When concentrated copper pyrites ore is
heated with silica in reverberatory furnace, Cu is produced in the form of copper matte which contains more Cu2S and
little FeS.
