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 condition Ore condition In mathematics, especially in the area of algebra known as ring theory, the Ore condition is a condition introduced by Øystein Ore, in connection with the question of extending beyond commutative rings the construction of a field of fractions, or more generally localization of a ring. The "right Ore condition" for a multiplicative subset "S" of a ring "R" is that for and , the intersection . A (non-commutative) integral domain for which the set of non-zero elements satisfies the right Ore condition is called a right Ore domain. The left case is defined similarly. The goal is
