| Abstract: |
| Huaizhenfang Site in Lantian County, Shaanxi Province is a melting site in Early Shang period. Lots of metallurgical relics such as slags, charcoals and burned soil blocks were found there. SEM-EDS analysis results of ore and slag samples collected in Huaizhenfang Site were conducted. The results show that ore is bornite and slags are all reducing slags. Most of the slag pieces are produced by smelting of pure copper from sulfide ore, while a few of them are generated by smelting of pure copper from oxidized ore. No smelting slags have been found in this research, further confirming that Huaizhengfang Site is a simple melting site in small size. This study has important significance for further research of metallurgy of Shang Dynasty in eastern Guanzhong area, and cultural exchange between eastern Guanzhong and capital area. |
