Gold decoration of copper ornaments obtained from the cemeteries of Central Kazakhstan was studied by the RFA method. It is shown that gold was alloyed with silver and copper. Based on differences in the composition of the gold decorations analyzed, it was concluded that ancient craftsmen had access to various raw material deposits. The similarity of the compositions of gold from different burials in the cemetery of Satan indicates the long-term functioning of some sources of raw materials. The similarity of the gold compositions in the Bosingen and Akimbek burial grounds attributed to the Alakul and Fedorovka cultures respectively, is explained by contacts between the communities that have left these cemeteries. At the same time, the similarity of compositions of gold from Central Kazakhstan and other regions of Eurasia is noted. It implies that rather erroneous conclusions can be drawn from the results of comparing compositions of gold.
