Transition from Surface to Shaft mining in Copper and Bronze Age Serbia

Kelly Finan

Next Image Title

Artist Name

Copper isotopes behave differently in near-surface environments than in non-weathering environments found deeper in the earth. By sampling copper isotopes (63 and 65) in metal artifacts from Copper and Bronze Age Serbia, Dr. Mathur and his colleagues discovered the approximate time that people of this region were introduced to shaft mining, a technique already in practice in the middle east. Soon to be published in the Journal of Archaeological Science.

medical illustration of The sagebrush steppe in Oregon, including cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum), western juniper (Juniperus occidentalis), greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus), pronghorn (Antilocapra americana), indian paintbrush (Castilleja sp.), lupine (Lupinus sp.), squirreltail (Elymus elymoides), Sandberg's bluegrass (Pos secunda), bluebunch wheatgrass (Pseudoroegneria spicata), western bluebirds (Sialia mexicana), sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata), and a golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos).
medical illustration of This graphic is part of Threat-based Land Management in the Northern Great Basin, A Manager's Guide. The illustration at the bottom of the graphic depicts the Oregon Sagebrush Steppe in nine different states, some of high quality and others degraded by invasive annual grasses, evergreens, or both. The flow chart at the top guides land managers to accurately identify the state of a landscape in question. After determining the state, managers can take actions to improve the habitat if possible.
medical illustration of Oregon sagebrush steppe landscape cutaway explaining how different management units might be mapped differently by land managers depending on their objectives. In this case, western juniper (Juniperus occidentalis) and invasive annual grasses are mapped differently based on different objectives.
medical illustration of Functional groups of plants useful when mapping landscape quality. Includes bunchgrasses, perennial forbs, annual forbs, annual grasses, sagebrush, and conifers. Examples include desert alyssum, sandberg's bluegrass, bluebunch wheatgrass, balsamroot, cheatgrass, and common juniper.

Reptin is a protein normally associated with tumor repression, but might also be linked to organs regrowth in these little guys. --- icthyology watercolor zebra fish danio aquarium fish embryo

medical illustration of The illustration shown here uses a reporter system that binds to an enzyme when the PCR product complements the probe sequence. A color change is seen when the enzyme substrate is supplied; if the PCR product does not complement the probe sequence, then no color develops. Alternatively, fluorescent or luminescent reporter systems may be used.
