By 2000 bc the process of purifying gold-silver alloys with salt to remove the silver was developed. The mining of alluvial deposits and, later, lode or vein deposits required crushing prior to gold extraction, and this consumed immense amounts of manpower. By ad 100, up to 40,000 slaves were employed in gold mining in Spain. The advent of ...

The extractive metallurgy of tin is complicated by tin's affinity for iron, and by the need to achieve good metallurgical recovery because of tin's high unit value. Tin has a low melting point of 232 °C, but the smelting temperatures needed are quite high. Figure 1 shows the range of tin processing options.
