One of the key challenges in studying ancient beads is comprehending the intricate techniques employed to color agate stones. An understanding of the staining mechanism from a mineralogical standpoint offers insights into the level of technological advancement in different civilizations. In this study, the mineral structure of eight ancient agate beads from Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, NW China, was analyzed using Micro X-ray fluorescence (µXRF), Raman spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) techniques. The color, transparency, mineral phase, and surface roughness of the beads were examined, revealing variations ranging from colorless to light violet to dark violet. 2023-09-14T02:44:41Z 2023-09-14T02:44:41Z 2023 Book https://link.springer.com/article/10.1186/s40494-023-01039-7 https://dlib.phenikaa-uni.edu.vn/handle/PNK/8991 en application/pdf Springer
