....that ...They can extract metal from ore. Metallurgical procedure are not very easy. What helped them distinguish that some minerals are ore and some are stones.
We find ores deep down the surface. By no means ancient people could have dug so deep. How did they got knowledge that iron can be extracted from hematite. Similarly copper, bronze from their ores etc.etc.
Were they damm genius gifted with mind blowing intuitive powers or god appeared in there dreams saying ' O man goeth there, diggeth it, melteth it in absence of air and geteth iron'.
How did it popped in their brain that ores can give them metal.
Thank you for your time.
