because self reduction process is used for the less electropositive element like Hg, Pb, and Cu. so Zns and Ag2s is not converted by this process

ZnS and Ag2S are thermally stable compound.
So they don't reduce directly by heating. To reduce them they are first converted into oxides then they are reduced with help of carbon
