SUMMARY
Smelting is an effective method for extracting fool's gold, or iron pyrite, from rocks. The process involves heating the ore to a high temperature to separate the metal from impurities. Specific techniques include using a furnace and flux materials to facilitate the separation. Proper safety measures must be taken due to the high temperatures and potential release of harmful gases.
