Stannite Stannite Stannite is a mineral, a sulfide of copper, iron, and tin. The chemical formula CuFeSnS. Zinc commonly occurs with the iron and trace germanium may be present. Stannite is used as an ore of tin, consisting of approximately 28% tin, 13% iron, 30% copper, 30% sulfur by mass. It is found in tin-bearing, hydrothermal vein deposits occurring with chalcopyrite, sphalerite, tetrahedrite, arsenopyrite, pyrite, cassiterite, and wolframite. It is also known as "bell metal ore" as tin is an important constituent of bell-metal. It is thought the exploitation of tin deposits in Cornwall led to an expansion in bell founding.
Ore extension which means that "δ" is a homomorphism of abelian groups satisfying Then the Ore extension "R"["x";"σ","δ"], also called a skew polynomial ring, is the noncommutative ring obtained by giving the ring of polynomials "R"["x"] a new multiplication, subject to the identity If "δ" = 0 (i.e., is the zero map) then the Ore extension is denoted "R"["x"; "σ"]. If "σ" = 1 (i.e., the identity map) then the Ore extension is denoted "R"["x","δ"] and is called a differential polynomial ring. The Weyl algebras are Ore extensions, with "R" any commutative polynomial ring, "σ" the identity ring endomorphism, and "δ" the
