Abstract

The museum of the Kurchum village, the East Kazakhstan region of the Republic of Kazakhstan, exhibits a small collection of archaeological items which are mostly random finds. Among them stands out a group of items made of non-ferrous metal of various preservation. The studies were carried out with the use of a portable X-ray fluorescence spectrometer “INNOV-X SYSTEMS” ALPHA SERIES™ (model Alpha-2000, made in the USA). The surface of the attached exhibits covered with oxides and patina was tested. The results obtained can be considered as preliminary and demonstrating only qualitative indicators. However, these data make it possible to characterize the alloys used for the manufacture of various categories of objects of material culture.
