* Ores are not metals: Ores are rocks that contain valuable minerals, which can be extracted and processed to obtain metals.
* Zinc and lead are separate metals: Zinc and lead are distinct metallic elements, each found in its own respective ore. Zinc is typically found in ores like sphalerite, while lead is commonly found in galena.
So, while zinc and lead are both metals, they are not combined in a single ore or metal.
