From: A 36,200-year-old carving from Grotte des Gorges, Amange, Jura, France
Chemical characterization of red particles present inside the notches arranged radially around the concavity of the Grotte des Gorges figurine. Acquisition location (A) and corresponding SEM spectra (right). Close-up view on the thin polygonal particle “a” (B). EDS reveals spectra “a” and “b” are richer in Fe2O3 than the spectrum “c” mainly composed of SiO2, CaO, Al2O3, and P2O5.
