Bronze is an alloy of copper (90%) and Tin (10%). Although there are also may alloys that are very much the same but have zinc added or zinc used instead of tin, like brass. Some alloys contain silicone (called silicone bronze). True bronze is difficult to find as most applications for the metal require special properties (and alloys) due to machining and other tensile requirements.
