The major application of decomposition reaction is the extraction of metal from its ore. 

Example: Zinc can be obtained from calamine using a decomposition reaction. On decomposition, zinc carbonate produces zinc oxide which on reduction gives zinc.

ZnCO3(s)  ZnO(s) + CO2(g)  (deomposition)

ZnO(s)+C(s)  reduction  Zn(s) + CO2(g) (reduction)
