Lead (Pb) isotopes provide a complementary method to other provenance tools for tracking the origin and movement of humans and animals. The method is founded in the geographic distribution of Pb isotope ratios. However, unlike the Sr isotope method that is closely linked to the lithology of underlying rocks, Pb more closely reflects the …Web

Unlike gold, silver rarely occurs in a pure form in a sufficient quantity to be useful. Usually it has been procured by smelting other ores, of which it can be thought of as almost a by-product. In antiquity a common ore used to produce silver was galena, or lead sulfide, although it appears that lead carbonate (cerussite) was also used.Web

Lead is typically a trace element in bronze, coins and many other metal objects, and a major constituent of crystal glass and lead pigments. This enables lead isotopes to be used to determine the provenance of these objects. Lead exists with four stable isotopes having mass numbers 204, 206, 207 and 208.Web

This gilding technique was apparently employed on small objects to imitate or fake solid gold. The lead filings were employed as a substitute for the much more expensive mercury. After the paste of gold and lead filings mixed with gum were applied to the surface, the lead was driven off by strongly heating the object until the lead evaporated. 4.Web
