Two texturally and mineralogically distinct types of Mississippi Valley-type mineralization are hosted by the upper Cambrian Metaline Formation in northeastern Washington. Josephine-type mineralization is iron poor and coarse grained, whereas Yellowhead-type mineralization is iron rich, fine grained, and commonly botryoidal. Josephine mineralization is found largely in the Josephine lithofacies...

The ORE is phenomenon whereby recognition for own race faces is better than recognition of other race faces. This study examines how non-perceptual factors—social context, attitudes, and experience—impact the ORE. Participants from three different racial groups (Caucasian, Black, Asian) completed a face recognition task screening faces for status-specific targets (baseline, perpetrator, victim)...

Investigations on the chemical and microbial leaching of a Nigerian Iron-ore in sulphuric acid have been carried out. The influence of physico-chemical parameters such as acid concentration, temperature, particle size and stirring speed on the chemical dissolution of the ore was investigated. The dissolution rates are significantly influenced by the temperature and acid concentration while the ...

We summarize some recent results on partial linear functional systems. By associating a finite-dimensional linear functional system to a Laurent-Ore module, Picard-Vessiot extensions are generalized from linear ordinary differential (difference) equations to finite-dimensional linear functional systems. A generalized Beke’s method is also presented for factoring Laurent-Ore modules and it will ...

We consider a free action of an Ore semigroup on a higher-rank graph, and the induced action by endomorphisms of the C ∗-algebra of the graph. We show that the crossed product by this action is stably isomorphic to the C ∗-algebra of a quotient graph. Our main tool is Laca’s dilation theory for endomorphic actions of Ore semigroups on C ∗-algebras, which embeds such an action in an automorphic ...

Currently, archival practice is moving towards the definition of complex relationships between the resources of interest as well as the constitution of compound digital objects. To this end archives can take advantage of using the Open Archives Initiative Object Reuse and Exchange (OAI-ORE) providing additional and flexible visualizations of archival resources. In this paper we define a formal ...

We prove the following result on the universal localization of a ring R at an ideal I: If the universal localization is flat as an R-module, then R satisfies the Ore condition with respect to the multiplicative set of elements that become invertible modulo I. It is well known that for domains the converse of this result holds, and hence we have found in this case a new characterization of the O...

In this work, the shaft furnace reactor of the MIDREX® process is simulated. This is a counter current gas-solid reactor, which transforms iron ore pellets into sponge iron. Simultaneous mass and energy balance along the reactor leads to a set of ordinary differential equation with two points boundary conditions. The iron ore reduction kinetics was modelated with the unreacted shrinking core mo...
