Which of the following processes is used to separate Sand and sawdust from the ores?
Calcination
Gravity separation
Magnetic separation
None of the above
Sand and saw dust are much lighter in density as compared to the ores. So, sand and saw dust can be separated by the gravity separation method. In the gravity separation method an upward? stream of running water is used to wash the powdered ore where the lighter sand or sawdust particles are washed away and heavier ores are left behind.
