Gold is formed independently from rocks so unlike iron or copper there is no 'ore' to extract it from. In general gold is acquired by finding nuggets in rocks. The gold is simply chipped off from the rock.
It is extremly difficult if not impossible to extract the small traces of gold that can be found in many rocks and as far as i am aware no commercial technique for acccquiring such gold.
By reduction-oxidation reaction you can extract metals, including Gold, from ore.
The process that uses cyanide to extract gold from ore is called cyanidation or the cyanide leaching process. It involves treating the ore with a weak cyanide solution, which dissolves the gold and forms a soluble complex. The gold is then recovered from the solution by various methods such as carbon adsorption, precipitation, or electro-winning.
Typically, you would use a flotation process to concentrate the copper and gold. Concentrate would be shipped to smelter for recovery of metals.
At one time, mercury WAS used to extract gold from gold ore. The rock was crushed, and washed over a copper sheet coated with mercury. Gold forms an amalgam with mercury, and some of the gold would be trapped in the mercury. The mercury would be scraped from the copper, and distilled, leaving behind the gold. Other processes are used today.
Tin is extracted from its ore by heating it with carbon or carbon monoxide.
By reduction-oxidation reaction you can extract metals, including Gold, from ore.
Highly toxic cyanide is used to extract gold ore.
The process that uses cyanide to extract gold from ore is called cyanidation or the cyanide leaching process.

Ore, a stone from which you can extract metals or other minerals, in Arabic is Khaam (خام). For example, Gold Ore = Khaam Dhahab (خام ذهب) and Iron Ore = Khaam Rassaas (خام رصاص)
Typically, you would use a flotation process to concentrate the copper and gold. Concentrate would be shipped to smelter for recovery of metals.
which ore is aluminum extracted from
To refine an ore means to extract the valuable metal that is inside the ore.
Copper Ore.
Gold is particularly attracted to mercury. In fact, mercury is used to extract gold from the ore that it is found in. Then a cyanide is used to make the mercury 'let go' of the gold in a manner in which people can recover it.
you extract it with a picaxe
Metals are generally mined in the form of ore. Ore is processed to extract the metal from the ore (known as smelting)
The name for gold ore, is infact Gold. That's it!
