An Order-Revealing Encryption (ORE) scheme gives a public procedure by which two ciphertext can be compared to reveal the order of their underlying plaintexts. The ideal security notion for ORE is that only the order is revealed — anything else, such as the distance between plaintexts, is hidden. The only known constructions of ORE achieving such ideal security are based on cryptographic multil...

Nome placer offshore gold grade estimation is a challenging problem in light of extreme ore heterogeneity. However, this type of phenomenon is quite common in placer ore grade variation. Further, the characterization of spatial ore grade variability and subsequent ore grade modelling of the deposit becomes problematic due to the unavailability of adequate samples. Being located in the Arctic, t...

The present research paper deals with the oxidation process of molybdenum ore. The main target of the present study is the up-gradation of MoO3 from roasted molybdenum ore by a leaching process without waste generation. The most important application of hydrometallurgical processing is the leaching process of the ore and it is the primary process to make pure metal from ore. The present investi...

A typical South Crofty ore containing minor amounts of arsenopyrite and chalcopyrite (ore A) gives 65% overall recovery of cassiterite in the spiral circuit, overall enrichment ratios being about 25-35. Maximum recovery occurs in the size range 53-110 /Lm(Fig. 2). However, recently treated ore types (ore B) have been much richer in sulphides, yielding up to 30°" As in the recleaner table concen...

A double Ore extension is a natural generalization of the Ore extension. We prove that a connected graded double Ore extension of an ArtinSchelter regular algebra is Artin-Schelter regular. Some other basic properties such as the determinant of the DE-data are studied. Using the double Ore extension, we construct 26 families of Artin-Schelter regular algebras of global dimension four in a seque...

There are many reasons to mine landfills. For example, metals are increasingly shifting location from the Earth’s crust through human society into landfills. These new mines are located closer to the market, in contrast to traditional mines in the countryside where the metals are deep inside the crust requiring huge amounts of energy to be extracted. In addition, metals in the landfill pose a p...

This paper investigates the impact of service quality in e-tailing on site visits and consumer demand (approximated by the last-clickthrough concept). We use a large representative data set obtained from a price-comparison site which covers most of the national (Austrian) market on e-tailing. Customers’ valuations for a broad range of 15 different service characteristics are condensed by factor...
