SLAG—software for reconstruction of historical smelting processes based on slag properties
The publication presents the functions of the SLAG software created to recreate historical metallurgical processes. SLAG allows for determining the smelting temperature, the viscosity of the metallurgical melt, and the oxygen and sulfur fugacities during smelting. With software, both liquidus temperature and melt viscosity can be calculated using different models, covering the range of chemical compositions of historical slags as wide as possible…
Reconstruction of smelting conditions during 16th‐ to 18th‐century copper ore processing in the Kielce region (Old Polish Industrial District) based on slags from Miedziana Góra, Poland
This study presents the first reconstruction of the smelting conditions in 16th‐ to 18th‐century smelters from Miedziana Góra (Holy Cross Mountains, Poland). Based on geochemical (inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry/emission spectrometry, X‐ray fluorescence) and mineralogical analysis (X‐ray diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy, electron probe micro‐analysis) of historical slags, their chemical/phase composition and the basic sme…
Complete reconstruction of the process and conditions during gold smelting in the 15th–17th centuries in Złoty Stok based on metallurgical slags
This study presents the first complete reconstruction of gold metallurgy in Złoty Stok, Poland. The key parameters of the process (i.e., temperature of smelting and solidification, melt viscosity, oxygen fugacity) are calculated using the remnants of the process: metallurgical slags. The slags consist of silicate phases (i.e., olivine, pyroxene), sulfides and arsenides (i.e., pyrrhotite, Fe 2 As), as well as glass. These slags are chemically domi…
