While one of his research interests has been iron metallurgy in proto-historic Korea, I imagine he knows who could readily answer your question (assuming he can't). 

Best, Mark Hall

Hello All,

Can anyone point me to literature and/or databases related to the use of zinc and/or brass in Korea?  Of particular interest is the Goryeo Dynasty, but any information would be welcomed.

Currently studying some purported Goryeo silver with zinc-bearing solder.  Could be a later repair, but if anyone has encountered a similar situation, whether ancient or a forgery, I would be interested to hear from you.  If you prefer to contact me off-list please use [log in to unmask]

Many thanks,
Mel
