    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Archaeology; expertise; artisanal perspective; skill; artisanal interpretation; practice; craft; craftspersons; techniques; knowledge; situated learning; master–apprentice; artefacts; tools; imprints; fingerprints; colour; crayon; artist material; re-interpretation; evaluation; tacit knowledge; embodied knowledge; silent knowledge; silent studies; contemporary artisanship;

    Sammanfattning : In what way can an artisanal perspective and artisanal knowledge contribute to current archaeology? How can theories about skill and expertise explain and affect research on artisanal issues? These are the questions that are in focus and have been explored in the four collected papers and in the concluding article in this thesis. The author proposes an artisanal perspective from an interdisciplinary viewpoint. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Characterization of Gold Pathfinder Minerals

    Författare :Gabriel Kofi Nzulu; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : In this Thesis, I investigate the properties of artisanal small-scale gold mining concentrate samples from the Kubi Gold Project of the Asante Gold Corporation near Dunkwa-on-Offin in the Central Region of Ghana with a material science perspective.X-ray diffraction (XRD) is used to identify SiO2 (quartz), Fe3O4 (magnetite), and Fe2O3 (hematite) as the main indicator minerals in the mining site while contributions from pyrite, arsenopyrites, iridosmine, scheelite, tetradymite, garnet, gypsum, and other sulfate minerals were insignificant.

  5. 4. Environmental, Resource and Health Impacts of Hard Materials

    Författare :Anna Furberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MFA; life cycle assessment; material flow analysis; cemented carbide; disability-adjusted life years; LCA; DALY; hard metal; tire stud;

    Sammanfattning : The importance of hard materials for society is illustrated by the fact that entire historical time periods have been named after the predominant hard material used at that time. In the latest century, the introduction of the hard material cemented tungsten carbide with cobalt (WC-Co) has contributed to the economic growth we have seen and this material is crucial for the manufacturing industry of today.
