I‘ve been getting into chemistry lately, mainly the ores. However, I‘m not sure of the types of chemistry that would revolve around that kind of stuff.So, in short - what kind of chemistry involves ores?
Jon's got it but check with your state laws Here in Canada flashing lights other than turn indicators are illegal.

I don't know there is a type of chemistry that involves ores. I do know there is a field of engineering that revolves around it. Materials Engineering deals with selection, testing, radiography, and the molecular makeup of the metal and other material we see ever product on the face of the planet. In mechanical engineering we took a materials course (simply called materials) that was not in the chemistry school, but rather the engineering branch. We learned about the properties, testing, and material selection of different types of steel and metal alloys. We learned about deformation, molecular structure, austenitic regions, tempering, alloying, stress analysis, propagation/decay/fractures/etc, and all things related to metal and it's characteristics. So I think the answer to your question is: It's part of Materials Engineering, not chemistry, because the person who works in the lab whipping up the next super-light-weight steel of the future is a materials engineer. Not a chemist. I hope that helps.
