Chapter 11 Four-Dimensional Hologram Interferometry for Automatic Detection of Copper Mineralization Using Terrasar-X Satellite Data
11.1 What is the Real Age of Copper?
What is the age of copper? Pre-dynastic Egyptians recognized copper incredibly meticulously. In hieroglyphic writing, while the symbol exploits copper to symbolize eternal existence, the ankh, was correspondingly exploited to denote copper.

The relationship between eternal resilience and the lifetime cost-efficiency of copper and its composites is confidently not spontaneous!
Consequently, the Egyptians attained most of their copper from the Red Sea Hills; however, copper predates ancient Egypt by numerous ...
