    The answer is; crude oil and iron ore

    Iron ore is used to make steel (mainly Fe). However, the raw material contains a mixture of impurities such as pyrite and apatite that have to be removed. Crude oil also includes a mixture of different hydrocarbon and other impurities. Impurities such as water have to be removed and the hydrocarbon distilled to separate them.
