Not a request, but I just reread the pinned, and I want to know about Arianne. I wanna know details, all of them, and if i can use them in request ~🗑

Wahhh I would love to tell you more about her!!

Her full name is Arianne Corbin!

To summarize, she is Liliths personal servant who (now that Lilith is gone) has been tasked with looking over the hotel and Charlie. She's served them for just over eight hundred years, which is a good chunk of Lilith's life.

In more detail, her last name is a word for crow, because she can turn into a crow and fly around for faster travel. Her skirt is made of her own feathers, because in that form she is a deep blood-red colour.

She is a lust demon, though her lineage has all served the Morningstar family and she was specifically trained to do so. She is loyal as loyal comes, and is more than willing to give up her life for any of the Morningstars.

She has a french accent because she enjoys studying french. Despite being a lust demon, she is asexual, and she is a good 6'7 feet tall (just a bit taller than Charlie).

While she is very caring, she is also pretty strict with etiquette and very judgemental of the lower classes of hell. She believes sinners to be very unpredicatable and thus doesn't trust them around Charlie. She is outright cruel to most hellhounds and imps. Because Charlie doesn't like that, she keeps it to herself, but its a nasty habit of hers.

As for requesting, absolutely!! I would love to write x readers with her, or you can just ask for interaction posts, or just ask me to include her in any charlie, lucifer, lilith fics!

Double Toggle Grease Base Jaw Crusher Applications-KV Metal

Double Toggle Jaw Crushers are preferred for crushing usually hard, abrasive rocks and other materials like ferroalloys and glass. They differ substantially from other types of crushers. There is no rotary motion in the crushing cycle and all crushing is done by compression of the feed material between two massive jaws plates. The moving jaw compresses the material against the stationary jaw.

Crushing Applications of Double Toggle Jaw Crusher:

The dynamic application of these crushers helps in crushing higher-density materials with higher performance and Double Toggle Jaw Crushers are designed for primary, secondary, and sometimes tertiary applications.

Materials;-

· Granite & Lime Stone

· Ferro Alloys

· Black Trap Rock

· Coal / Coke

· Carborundum

· River Gravel

· Iron ore & Manganese ore

· Emery

· Blast Furnace Slag & Cupriferous slag

· Bauxite

· Quartzite

· Calcium Carbide

Benefits

· The distinctive “crushing without rubbing” action improves jaw plate life extensively.

· The exclusive design of the crushing chamber and Pitman toggle plate make it manage the toughest materials.

Can I get C for the alphabet game? 💜

Hallo! Your word is CUPRIFEROUS, which means “containing copper”.

The wet walls of the caves shimmered greenly in the flickering light of Geralt’s torch. Jaskier reached out to touch the weird looking rocks, and they were cold beneath his fingertips, slick with run-off water coming from somewhere above.

This had been a mine - it was still a mine, the cupriferous walls still glimmering with tonnes of copper ore - but the workers had abandoned it weeks ago, despite the riches trapped within its caves.

Thick fog gathered around their ankles, and Geralt shot out a warning hand.

“Stay here,” he said. “Don’t go any further. Take this...”

He passed Jaskier the torch, then cast the sign for Igni, bathing his own hand in flames. Jaskier gripped the torch, willing his arm not to shake.

“Foglets,” said Geralt, dropping his voice to a whisper and leaning closer, his mouth brushing Jaskier’s ear. “Hear that?”

Jaskier strained his human hearing, but could only hear the creaking, dripping noises of the cave itself. And then… a skittering, a kind of laughing hiss. He nodded, his lips tightly pressed together.

A strange noise rumbled lowly from Geralt’s chest. “I shouldn’t have let you come,” he muttered. “It’s too dangerous. Have you got the dagger I gave you?”

Jaskier reached down, pulling the shining silver blade from its sheath. “I do,” he whispered, peering into the darkness over Geralt’s shoulder. He fingered the intricately carved handle beneath his thumb - a nervous habit.

“Good. You might need it…” Geralt took a deep breath, and pulled his silver sword from his back. “If you see a light,” he said, “whatever you do: don’t go towards it.”

He blinked. “Isn’t that usually the opposite of the advice? Go towards the light…” he grinned, despite the fear nibbling at his stomach, “Am I dead?” He asked.

“Not if you stay here,” Geralt said with a scowl, “and not if you don’t follow the lights.”

Jaskier swallowed. In the darkness, Geralt had suddenly become the picture of the well-seasoned monster hunter. His cat-like pupils were wide, and oil glistened on the blade of his sword. Fire licked painlessly at his fingers. The dancing shadows made him look almost inhuman. Almost.

“Stay here,” he repeated, “Stay close to the wall. I’ll be back soon.”

And then he hesitated. He glanced towards the shadowy tunnel at the end of the cave, then back to Jaskier.

“I will be back,” he said, finally, and in a quick movement he darted forward, capturing Jaskier’s face and pressing a quick, dry kiss to his jaw. Jaskier flushed - he still did, even now, even after all these months.

“You will.” He replied, and he knew it was true.

Double Toggle Jaw Crushers

Double Toggle Jaw Crusher Manufacturers in India are preferred for crushing ususually hard, abrasive rocks and other materials like ferroalloys and glass. They differ substantially from other types of crushers. There is no rotary motion in the crushing cycle and all crushing is done by compression of the feed material between two massive jaws plates. The moving jaw compresses the material against the stationary jaw. Jaw plates can be either smooth or corrugated.

WORKING PRINCIPLE & ADVANTAGES OF DOUBLE TOGGLE JAW CRUSHER :

Double Toggle Jaw Crushers have one jaw fixed, while the other pivots about a top hinge. This moving jaw is shaped to move firmly and squarely against the material. There is no rubbing or grinding. The moving jaw is very well balanced, so 95% of the drive motor power is ued for crushing. While only 5% of the power is needed to move the jaw itself. As a result of this high mechanical efficiency, double Toggle Jaw Crushers require smaller size motors, keeping power costs down. Behind the stationary jaw are shims, used to adjust the distance between the lower ends of the jaws (closed side setting). The setting determines the output product size. There is also an arrangement of safety arm for protection from us-crushables accidental overloads.

Paradise found: 12 crowd-free Asia island escapes

(CNN)Finding an empty beach in Asia was a breeze a few decades ago, but it's not quite so easy anymore.

As zealous souvenir hawkers follow busloads of tour groups to Asia's most famous islands, discerning travelers must look farther afield for more authentic getaways.

The good news? Whether your idea of paradise involves a tropical beach framed by palm trees, or wildlife encounters in the woods, Asia has an island for you.

From Indonesia to India, we've singled out a dozen of the best throw-back islands -- places where traditional cultures and unspoiled landscapes will transport travelers back in time.

Koh Rong, Cambodia

While much of Japan's huge northern island has been developed, a few corners of Hokkaido still offer a wild, untouched atmosphere.

Inhabited by brown bears, sea eagles and a host of other creatures, the island's diverse landscape features snow-capped volcanoes, hot springs, lakes and temperate northern forests.

MORE: 11 things that make Wakayama Japan's best-kept secret

The trees explode with color each fall and shed a sea of blossoms each spring.

The raw natural beauty of Hokkaido's national parks -- especially Daisetsuzan, Shiretoko and Akan in the northeast -- feels more like Alaska than what you would expect to find in Asia.

Another draw is the traditional Japanese onsen -- hot spring -- culture.

Hokkaido boasts 23 hot spring areas and 11 different types of onsen, from simple thermal and sulfur to lesser-known radium, ferruginous (iron oxide) and cupriferous (copper) springs.

Minele pe care ministrul Economiei vrea să le redeschidă sunt nişte ruine

Ministrul Economiei, Niculae Bădălău, a declarat că unul dintre obiectivele mandatului său este acela de a redeschide mineritul.

Chiar a spus că până în august vor fi semnate primele contracte.

“REMIN Baia Mare va fi redeschisă” – a spus ministrul Bădălău – “iar Cuprumin Alba va deveni a doua din Europa pe Siderurgie”.

El a anunţat la TVR că se lucrează la o nouă lege a minelor.

https://www.europafm.ro/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/04apr-13-badalau-Vreau-sa-deschid-minele-e-proiectul-meu.mp3

EMBED CODE Copiază codul de mai jos pentru a adăuga acest clip audio pe site-ul tău.

Însă, în ce situaţie se află acum minele pe care vrea să le redeschidă ministrul economiei?

Corespondenţii Europa FM transmit că multe nu mai funcţionează de ani de zile, iar unele au fost vândute la fier vechi.

REMIN BAIA MARE: Cladiri in paragina si galerii inundate, dar si foste perimetre miniere neecologizate. Atat a mai ramas in urma minieritului din Maramures, dupa anul 2007. In această situaţie, redeschiderea activitatii mineritului in zona, pare o himeră – transmite corespondenta Europa FM, Mica Şvab.

In Maramures mineritul a reprezentat cea mai importanta activitate economico-sociala.

Insa odata cu sistarea subventiei de stat, Compania Remin a devenit dupa anul 2007, cadavru industrial jefuit si vandut la bucata, de cercurile de interese nationale si locale.

Cu datorii imense la bugetul central si cel local, fosta unitate reprezentativa a judetului este la mina lichidatorilor, care inca mai incaseaza venituri substantiale din valorificarea pasivelor companiei.

Situatia fostelor exploatari miniere este jalnica, galeriile sunt inundate, toate cladirile in paragina iar inventarul este bun de aruncat la fier vechi. Acest lucru este confirmat si de primarul orasului Baia Sprie, un oras cu 17.000 de locuitori unde oamenii au trait doar din minerit.

Maramuresenii se intreaba, cu ce resurse umane se va relua lucrul, in conditiile in care in ultimii 20 de ani minerii au imbatranit, s-au reorientat sau au plecat din tara.

În ce priveşte Exploatarea Băiţa Hunedoara, specialiștii consideră că este foarte greu să se redeschidă această exploatare, dar nu imposibil.

În primul rând, la Băița ar trebui făcute prospecțiuni și explorări, dar și un studiu de fezabilitate care să arate dacă merită să se investească în zonă – transmite corespondenta Europa FM, Monalise Hinh.

Într-un studiu scris de istorici hunedoreni, care citează mai mulți specialiști în minerit aurifer, se arată că zăcământul nu şi-a spus încă ultimul cuvânt.

Specialiştii consideră oportună o verificare în adâncime, sub nivelul lucrărilor vechi, a zăcământului.

Surse neoficiale au declarat că directorul Minvest Deva este la București, unde are loc o întâlnire cu ministrul Economiei, Nicolae Bădălău, iar tema discuțiilor ar fi tocmai mineritul aurifer.

În zona Băița din județul Hunedoara, exploatarea aurului s-a făcut câteva secole la rând, dar cu perioade în care lucrările s-au sistat.

La fel s-a întâmplat și la începutul anilor 90, când, din lipsă de fonduri, în politica generală de închidere a minelor considerate nerentabile, lucrările s-au oprit.

Compania Cupru Min S.A. Abrud este unicul producător din România care are ca obiect principal de activitate extracţia de minereuri neferoase, prepararea minereurilor cuprifere şi valorificarea concentratului cupros şi a metalelor preţioase.

Compania a semnat, în octombrie 2017, un contract pe doi ani cu o companie din Hong Kong, pentru vânzarea concentratului de cupru care este transportat în China.

Anul trecut, compania a înregistrat o producţie de concentrat de cupru de 38.162 de tone. La finele anului 2017, Cupru Min S.A. Abrud avea 556 de angajaţi.

Zăcământul este situat administrativ pe teritoriul comunei Lupşa, judeţul Alba. nPartea utilă a zăcământului este constituită din minerale de cupru, înglobând peste 1 miliard de tone minereu.
