    This paper improves considerably some recent results of the author concerning the minimizing properties of the cones \[ C_ n^{\alpha}=\{0\leq x_{n+1}\leq \sqrt{\frac{\alpha}{n-1}}[x^ 2_ 1+...+x^ 2_ n]^{1/2}\}. \] It is shown that the new results are optimal. Moreover the existence of singular minimizers of class \(C^{0,}\) is established in any dimension \(n\geq 2\).
