An ore is a type of rock that contains sufficient minerals with important elements including metals that can be extracted from the rock for money. Examples of ore included quartz, gold, silver, copper, etc.
Microscope World recently had a client who wanted to view sand-size particles of ore under the microscope in order to determine the types of ore. The following images were captured using a metallurgical microscope at 200x magnification along with a high definition (HD) microscope camera.
