Sourcing obsidian from prehistoric sites in northwest Romania
Portable X‐ ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy (pXRF) was used to reveal the chemical signatures of 75 obsidian artefacts from seven sites in the Satu Mare region, ranging in age from Early Neolithic (late Starčevo‐ Criș culture) to Late Copper Age.

An elemental exploration of the metal contents of an early 13th-century craft box from Lõhavere, using pXRF [PDF]
The craft box recovered from a 13thÂcentury hillfort at Lõhavere, Estonia, contained a well-preserved selection of copperÂalloy objects. The limited corrosion on these objects allowed a more accurate estimation of their compositions through non ...

The permafrost mineral reserve: identify potential mineral nutrient hotspots upon thawing [PDF]
The thawing of permafrost exposes organic matter to decomposition but also mineral constituents to water. To evaluate the potential to create mineral nutrients hotspots upon thawing, an inventory of the mineral element content and its local variability ...
