<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pavlos, post: 3365579, member: 96635&quot;]In the article there can be seen there is totally no trend in the antiquity vs the trapped He atoms. An item from 12th century has more He atoms trapped then an item from the 1st century. It all has to do where the gold in the object came from, every deposit of gold has another concentration of U and Th elements in the crystal structure, meaning that every item from a different gold deposit has another rate of He emission.</p><p><br /></p><p>The authors even conclude themselves multiple times that this method is unreliable but can be a good additional confirmation if a gold piece is fake or not.</p><p><br /></p><p>Until this date, there is no trustworthy method for silver or gold that can fully determine the antiquity unlike the quite trustworthy method of radiocarbon dating for organic materials.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I agree with [USER=44132]@Bing[/USER] regarding the animosity lately.</p><p>It would be a real shame to loss a valuable member on this forum, I hope you do stay.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
