Trace Analysis of Ancient Gold Objects Using Radiochemical Neutron Activation

Nuclear Experiment 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Radiochemical neutron activation analysis has been applied to investigate the microelements in gold samples with archaeological importance. Chemical separation has allowed the determination of traces of Ir, Os, Sb, Zn, Co, Fe, Ni. Instrumental neutron activation analysis has been used for the determination of Cu.
