Metallurgy involves the extraction of metals from ores and their refinement for various uses. Key processes include concentration of ore, reduction of oxides, and refining of metals, with a focus on methodologies suited to different metal reactivities. Alloys are created to enhance properties such as strength and corrosion resistance, incorporating a deliberate mix of metals.
