In this paper the results of post-mortem analysis of mirror samples (molybdenum, stainless steel and copper) exposed for the 1 year experimental campaign inside the Tore Supra tokamak are presented. The mirrors were not protected during the experiment and therefore were exposed both to glow discharge conditioning of the vessel walls and to working discharges. After exposure, all samples were found to be eroded and at the same time were coated with a thin contaminating deposit. We pay attention to the fact, that the observed erosion cannot be described using the published sputtering yields. In particular, the difference between the erosion of stainless steel and copper exceeded a factor of 10 and the difference between the erosion of stainless steel and molybdenum was less than a factor of 2 in comparison with the corresponding factors of approximately 2.5 and apprximately 10 known from the literature. An attempt is made to correlate these observations with the different sticking coefficients of carbon on to different substrates.
