Bornite Bornite Bornite, also known as peacock ore, is a sulfide mineral with chemical composition CuFeS that crystallizes in the orthorhombic system (pseudo-cubic). Bornite has a brown to copper-red color on fresh surfaces that tarnishes to various iridescent shades of blue to purple in places. Its striking iridescence gives it the nickname "peacock copper" or "peacock ore". Bornite is an important copper ore mineral and occurs widely in porphyry copper deposits along with the more common chalcopyrite. Chalcopyrite and bornite are both typically replaced by chalcocite and covellite in the supergene enrichment zone of copper deposits. Bornite is also found as
Ore algebra Ore algebra In computer algebra, an Ore algebra is a special kind of iterated Ore extension that can be used to represent linear functional operators, including linear differential and/or recurrence operators. The concept is named after Øystein Ore. Let formula_1 be a (commutative) field and formula_2 be a commutative polynomial ring (with formula_3 when formula_4). The iterated skew polynomial ring formula_5 is called an Ore algebra when the formula_6 and formula_7 commute for formula_8, and satisfy formula_9, formula_10 for formula_11. Ore algebras satisfy the Ore condition, and thus can be embedded in a (skew) field of fractions. The constraint of
