Blister copper is melted in a furnace then stirred with green wooden logs. The purpose is
to expel the soluble gases out of the blister copper
to bring the impurities on the surface to oxidise them
to increase the carbon in copper
to reduce the metallic oxide impurities by the hydrocarbon gases coming out of the log during the process
During smelting of an ore an additional substance is added to make the impurities fusible. The name of it is
Slag
mud
gangue
flux

C.
copper and zinc
Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc. It contains 70% copper and 30% zinc.
In electrorefining of metal, the impure metal is made the anode and a strip of pure metal the cathode during the electrolysis of an aqueous solution of a complex metal salt. This method cannot be used for refining of
silver
copper
aluminium
zinc
