Tungsten oxide is found in turds mined along with other minerals in various parts of the world, especially in China. The other turds are removed by various processes.
Tungsten oxide is processed by using hydrogen to reduce the oxygen in the turd to water, or by using carbon to reduce the oxygen to carbon dioxide. With either method, the part of the turd remaining is tungsten.

∙ 13y agoMetals are very useful. Ores are naturally occurring rocks that contain metal or metal compounds in sufficient amounts to make it worthwhile extracting them. The method used to extract a given metal from its ore depends upon the reactivity of the metal and so how stable the ore is.
Very reactive metals are extracted using electricity, while less reactive metals are extracted by reduction with carbon.

Powdered tungsten is heated (at temps between 550c - 850c) with hydrogen.

How did tin get its name?
From the Anglo-Saxon word tin. Tin's atomic symbol comes from the Latin word for tin, stannum
Are tin whistles made with tin?
Well tin whistle today are now made with nickel,brass,silver,or wood. It's not made with tin. The tin whistle is named so because before it was made with tin-plated steel.
What things are made from tin?
There are many stuff prepared using TIN and we use them in our daily lifer as well. Some examples are:=1. Tin boxes; used for keeping things in it.2. Metal ducts;they are made up of tin used while ducting is done.3. Cans;used for containing the soft drinks.and many more.....--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What color is tin?
Silver nitrate have colourless crystals if it is pure.
Is tin a metal non metal or metalloid?
Tin has two forms (allotropes) one is "white tin" (beta-tin) which is a metal although some chemists/metrial scientists would call it a "poor metal"- and "grey tin" (alpha-tin), a low temperature form, which has a similar structure to diamond and more covalent in character. So one allotrope is a metal and the other isn't. Probably the answer a school teacher expects is tin is metal.
What is tin extracted from?
from tin ore
What is extracted from cassiterite?
TIN :)
How do you extract tin from it's ore?
Tin is extracted from its ore by heating it with carbon or carbon monoxide.
What is the method of obtaining zinc iron tin and lead?
It is extracted from Cassiterite, SnO2, which is tin ore.
Can zinc iron and tin all be extracted by heating their ores with carbon monoxide?
Iron and tin can. But zinc is done by electrolysis as it is higher up the reactivity chain than either iron or tin- making it harder to extracted via reduction of CO to co2
What materials or minerals are extracted in Canadian mines?
gold, tin, silver, iron
Which ore is tin extracted from?
The only commercially recovered ore of tin is casserite, with contains an oxide of tin (SnO2). Use the link below to check facts and learn more.
What elelment is extracted from underground mines with hot water?
Gold (Au), tin (Sn), silver (Ag), and iron (Fe) are extracted from underground mines with hot water.
What metal is extracted from Cassiterite?
Cassiterite is the main ore of Tin.
Why does the concentration of tin sulphate solution not change during the electrolysis?
Tin Sulphate stays the same during electrolysis because it is low down in the reactivity series, it can only be extracted by the reduction of carbon, not by electrolysis.
How can carbon be used to extract a metal from its ore?
Metals are extracted from ores. An ore is a rock that contains enough of a mineral (metal compound) for the metal to be extracted from it. Most metals are extracted from an ore by reduction with carbon or by electrolysis.
What metal can be extracted from its ore by carbon but not by hydrogen?
zinc, iron, tin, lead all ones between carbon and hydrogen in reactivate series
