Abstract
Three groups of currency bars from three separate hoards were analyzed for the distribution of 17 elements in their slag inclusions. There is a clear statistical discrimination between the three groups which can be attributed to the different ore sources. Thus chemical analysis of slag inclusions in wrought iron can be used to trace the different sources of iron artifacts, at least within the context of the geology of southern England.
