In reviewing several metallurigical studies from my library involving
previous researchers concerning objects such as copper ingots, copper
age metalwork and copper coins and in terms of seeking a possible
provenance the analyte list for copper analysis in terms of the
elemnts which should be analyzed are in my opinion: Copper,
Tin,Arsenic,Antimony, Silver, Lead, Iron, Nickel, Cobalt, Zinc, Gold,
Bismuth and Sulfur.
As an example recently five U.K. researchers have pinpointed five
Bronze Age metal artifacts to a specific Cornubian metallogenic
province in S.W. England using lead-isotopic analysis. The paper
titled "Copper Deposits in south-west England identified as a source
in Copper Age metalwork" may be very interesting to some C-4 members.

There target compound list is similar to other studies I have read
and compared. The fingerprinting methodologies and conclusions in
this article are very interesting.
