大冶铜绿山新见宋代炉(窑)之研究

Research on the Newly Discovered Furnaces (Kilns) of Song Dynasty in Tonglushan of Daye City

为了配合铜绿山遗址博物馆新馆基建选址,在四方塘遗址发掘出一批不同时期炉(窑),经对北宋时期三座炉(窑)形制、规模、朝向、残留遗物等综合研究,并对炉壁进行成分分析,确定三座炉(窑)皆为硫化铜矿火法脱硫处理的焙烧炉,即硫化铜矿石冶炼前的一道生产工艺。焙烧炉的发现从侧面印证了史载北宋朝廷在今黄石设置冶场是可信的,也为今后在大冶铜绿山及周边地区探寻和发掘北宋冶铜场提供了线索。

When selecting site for the construction of new Museum of Tonglushan Ancient Copper Mine Relics,the researchers excavated a number of furnaces ( kilns ) in different periods at Sifangtang Relics.Based on the comprehensive study of the shape,scale,orientation,residue of the three furnaces (kilns) in the Northern Song Dynasty,and the composition analysis of the furnace walls,it is found that the three furnaces (kilns) are all roasting furnaces for the pyrolytic desulfurization of copper sulfide ore,which is a production procedure before smelting copper sulfide ore.The discovery of the roasting furnace indirectly confirms the credibility of the historical record that the Northern Song Dynasty set up a smelting field in Huangshi today,which also provides clues for the future exploration and excavation of the Northern Song Dynasty copper smelting field in Tonglushan and the surrounding areas of Daye City.
