Despite all studies that so far have been taken place regarding to recognition of these series of objects which contain high combination of Copper and Arsenic, unfortunately the real position of these kinds of objects in the process of metallic industries’ developments of ancient time is ambiguous. In this article we want to analyses the topic of Copper containing arsenic by making use of different resources in geology, metallurgy and other findings regarding to old metallic.
