Pitaya usually refers to fruit of the genus Stenocereus, while pitahaya or dragon fruit refers to fruit of the genus Selenicereus (formerly Hylocereus), both in the family Cactaceae. [3] The common name in English – dragon fruit – derives from the leather-like skin and scaly spikes on the fruit exterior.

Copper mining activity increased in the early 2000s because of increased price: the price increased from an average of $0.76 per pound for the year 2002, to $3.02 per pound for 2007. [2] A number of byproducts are recovered from American copper mining.

Production trends in the top five copper-producing countries, 1950-2012. This is a list of countries by mined copper production. Copper ore can be exported to be smelted so that a nation's smelter production of copper can differ greatly from its mined production. See: List of countries by copper smelter production.
The cutoff grade is adapted as the economic environment changes with regard to metal prices and mining costs, and is therefore constantly changing. Metal value is not the only factor affecting the profitability of an ore block. The presence of unwanted material in an ore block may increase the processing cost.
Dragonfruit stems are scandent (climbing habit), creeping, sprawling or clambering, and branch profusely. There can be four to seven of them, between 5 and 10 m (16 and 33 ft)or longer, with joints from 30 to 120 cm (12 to 47 in) or longer, and 10 to 12 cm (3.9 to 4.7 in) thick; with generally three ribs; margins are corneous (horn-like) with age, and undulate.
When the ore forms a blanketlike body along the bedding plane of the rock, it is commonly called a manto ore deposit. Other ore geometries are chimneys and veins. [ 4 ] Polymetallic replacements/mantos are often stratiform wall-rock replacement orebodies distal to porphyry copper deposits, [ 5 ] or porphyry molybdenum deposits. [ 6 ]
