The ancient Indian text "Rasaratnakara" (meaning "Ocean of Mercury" or "Jewel Mine of Mercury"), which delves into the intricacies of alchemy, metallurgy, and chemistry, is widely attributed to the Indian metallurgist and chemist Nagarjuna. This work is significant for detailing processes like the extraction of various metals including gold, silver, tin, and copper. While there can be some historical ambiguity due to multiple individuals bearing the name Nagarjuna and other texts with similar titles (like a 13th-century work by Nityanatha Siddha), the most prominent "Rasaratnakara" in the context of ancient Indian chemistry is associated with Nagarjuna, often placed around the 8th century AD.
