| Research Abstract |
For the estimation of produced metals and smelting process, X-ray fluorescence analysis, X-ray diffraction analysis and electron microprobe analysis were applied on ores, slag and furnace material from major production remains in Japan. One of the results elucidated the process of production of arsenic copper at the Naganobori copper mine. Also, the results emphasize the importance of addition of read for the smelting of high-grade silver ores at 16th and 17th centuries in Japan.
