A new external microbeam system has been installed recently at the +45° beam line of the 3 MV Pelletron accelerator at the Centro Nacional de Aceleradores (Sevilla, Spain). The facility, based on the system from Oxford Microbeams (OM), includes two sets of slits, a doublet of magnetic quadrupole focusing lenses, a Faraday cup and an accurate positioning device. In addition, a beam profile monitor (BPM) and a quartz viewer have been installed in the line to facilitate the microbeam production. The first PIXE application of the new facility was made in the field of Archaeometry, on the study of Tartesic gold artefacts (700–500 BC, SW of Spain) from Ébora and other archaeological sites. The aim of the analysis was to perform an exhaustive and systematic study about the soldering procedures that were employed by the goldsmiths along the Valley of Guadalquivir River after the Phoenician colonisation.
