The exploitation of coal, a hard black road made up of 65-95 per cent carbon that burns when set alight, has a long history going back thousands of years. Prospecting for coal in Kenya started in 2000 and the discovery of large, commercial coal deposits in the ...

"Run-of-mine" ore is a mix of valuable minerals and worthless rock in which each ingredient is priced separately. Run- of-mine ore is treated in the dressing plant and processed into different concentrates. Where the ore contains more than one metal of value, separate concentrates of, for example, copper, zinc, and lead are produced.
