Preliminary geochemical analysis of asbestos minerals from geological and archaeological contexts in Finnmark, north Norway Evaluating the potential for sourcing tempers in asbestos ceramics
Source at http://www.sarks.fi/masf/masf_10/masf_10.html.This is a preliminary study of the potential for sourcing asbestos minerals used as temper in ceramics from Early Metal Age sites in Finnmark, northern Norway. Energy dispersive spectroscopy
(EDS/EDX) is used to analyze samples from geological sources and archaeological sites. Although
tempers were highly portable, the results of the analysis mostly indicate local procurement, however non-local sources are possible in some cases
