GUID (UUID V4):

Slags and fragments of metallurgical crucibles with remnants of baked batch, originating from a newly discovered locality in the Smetanova Street in the town of Jablonec nad Nisou, were studied using an electron microprobe. We suggest that the studied artifacts originated during a modern (<150 years) non-professional metallurgical activity focused largely to re-melting of metallic copper and brass. Heating of charged crucibles was realized in direct contact with burning coal. The aim of the studied metallurgical activity is not clear, it could be (i) a small hand-crafted workshop processing metal waste and producing small articles undemanding to alloy composition; (ii) an experimental hobby focused on practical learning of the metallurgical properties of the used metals, sulfides or alloys, or (iii) a crime-related activity aimed to prevent the identification of stolen artefacts made from non-ferrous metals.
