Fig. 5: UV/Vis/NIR reflectance spectra of a reference celadonite mineral sample from Cyprus and an unknown green paint sample from the Enkleistra (Koukoulli and Fischer 2011–2012)
Fig. 5: UV/Vis/NIR reflectance spectra of a reference celadonite mineral sample from Cyprus and an unknown green paint sample from the Enkleistra. UV/Vis/NIR provided the exact identification of celadonite with the speciation of the iron (Fe) compounds showing a broad absorption between 540 and 750 nm indicative of the d-d ligand-field and intervalence charge-transfer (IVCT) transitions in the visible region of the chromophors Fe^+2 and Fe^+3 and by the overtones and combination bands of the structural OH (octahedral site, bound to a cation) stretching and bending vibrations and H2O stretching and bending vibrations in the near infrared region.

Fig. 6: UV/Vis/NIR reflectance spectra of a reference lapis lazuli (lazurite mineral) and unknown blue paint samples from the Enkleistra. The identification of lapis lazuli in the blue paints was determined by its distinctive electronic spectrum displaying a strong and broad absorption around 600 nm in the visible caused by the S3 paramagnetic radical anion in lapis lazuli.

Fig. 7: UV/Vis/NIR reflectance spectra of a reference cinnabar sample and unknown red paint samples from the Enkleistra. The identification of cinnabar in the red paints was possible due to the characteristic absorption edge (or band edge) of sulfur (S) and by pXRF spectroscopy with the photon emissions at 9.987 keV (L-alpha edge energy) and 11.823 keV (L-beta edge energy) characteristic of mercury.
