Solution

The correct options are
A ZnS
C Cu2S
Roasting is a process of heating the concentrated ore at the temperature below its melting point in the presence of air.

Sulphide ores are transformed into their oxide by this process. In the given options only ZnS and Cu2S are sulphide ores. So, roasting is done only for ZnS and Cu2S.
