A museum used advanced synchrotron light technology to analyse the source of ancient gold in Thailand.

The Phimai National Museum in Nakhon Ratchasima province took gold samples believed to be a thousand years old from stone castles in Thailand's northeastern Isan region. The collection was done to analyse the composition of the precious metal using synchrotron light technology.
