Casting; pouring molten gold into an ingot. Gold was processed in La Luz Gold Mine (pictured) near Siuna, Nicaragua, until 1968. Metallurgy is a domain of materials science and engineering that studies the physical and chemical behavior of metallic elements, their inter-metallic compounds, and their mixtures, which are called alloys. Metallurgy is used to separate metals from their ore. Metallurgy is also the technology of metals: the way in which science is applied to the production of metals, and the engineering of metal components for usage in products for consumers and manufacturers. The production of metals involves the processing of ores to extract the metal they contain, and the mixture of metals, sometimes with other elements, to produce alloys. Metallurgy is distinguished from the craft of metalworking, although metalworking relies on metallurgy, as medicine relies on medical science, for technical advancement. The science of metallurgy is subdivided into chemical metallurgy and physical metallurgy. Metallurgy is subdivided into ferrous metallurgy (also known as black metallurgy) and non-ferrous metallurgy (also known as colored metallurgy). Ferrous metallurgy involves processes and alloys based on iron while non-ferrous metallurgy involves processes and alloys based on other metals. The production of ferrous metals accounts for 95 percent of world metal production.[1] Etymology and pronunciation	  History	  Extraction	  Alloys	  Production	  Microstructure	  See also	  References	  External links	  Last edited 12 days ago by an anonymous user RELATED ARTICLES Alloy mixture or metallic solid solution composed of two or more elements List of ASTM International standards Wikimedia list article Non-ferrous extractive metallurgy metallurgy process Wikipedia  Content is available under CC BY-SA 3.0 unless otherwise noted.
