In the paleometallic era, the metallurgy of the Central Asian Interfluve was based on the ore bases ofUzbekistan and Tajikistan. The traces of smelting of copper, tin and polymetals, semi-finished products,foundries, ingots, metal drop-lets and, finally, products found in settlements, in burial grounds and minesand near them serve as evidence of local metallurgical production. The bulk of the finds come frommonuments located in the Zarafshan, Ferghana-Tashkent and Kyzylkum regions. Obviously, there werelarge centers for the extraction of copper, tin and polymetals, as well as the manufacturing of tools of themost ancient period.According to the statistical processing of the results of spectral analysis, the metal collections of culturesand monuments in the Northern and Central zone of the Central Asian Interfluve are split into 23 chemicalgroups, which implies the use of an appropriate number of ore sources of copper and polymetals, withoutconsidering the tin sources. It is necessary to note the different connections of the ancient metallurgy of theCentral Asian Mesopotamia with the sources of raw materials at one or another stage of its development.So, in the Eneolithic era, local craftsmen (Sarazm, Shagym and the Zamanbaba culture) used metal fromIranian and Afghan sources more often, copper from local deposits was used much less often at that time,for example, in the Kyzylkum mining region and the Zaravshan metallogenic province. The developmentof mines in the northern zone, covering the Chatkal-Kuramin mining region, begins in the Bronze Age (thefirst half of the 2nd millennium BC). Later, in the second half of the first quarter of the 1st millennium BCjudging by the high proportions of products in the collection that are genetically related to the depositsand ore occurrences of the Chatkal and Kuramin mountains, the exploitation of the latter is becomingmore active.
