Question:
Which of the following is not an iron ore?
Which of the following is not an iron ore?
Show Hint
While Chalcopyrite is a significant copper ore, it does not contain iron and is not used for iron extraction.
Updated On: May 5, 2025
- Banded Hematite Quartzite (BHQ)
- Hematite
- Goethite
- Chalcopyrite
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Chalcopyrite is a copper ore, not an iron ore. The other options are iron ores commonly used in steelmaking.
