The traditional extractive methods for steel, aluminum, copper, zinc and lead, which are some of the basic materials used in human activities, are briefly described in this chapter. In a case study of copper slag, these traditional methods of extractive metallurgy are integrated with utilization of the residual material after extraction, in order to design a complete recycling flow sheet.
