TIN ORE

Product details

Tin ore refers primarily to cassiterite (\(SnO_{2}\)), a tin oxide mineral, which is the main source of tin metal, obtained by smelting it with carbon. This dark, heavy mineral forms in granitic environments, often with quartz, and is processed through crushing, gravity separation, flotation, and smelting to yield the soft, malleable metal used in solders, plating (like tin cans), and alloys.
