Extract
This date list includes those series of samples completed in this laboratory as of December 1970. The B.P. ages are based upon A.D. 1950, and are calculated with a half-life value of 5568 yr. All samples were counted at least, twice for periods of not less than 1000 minutes each. Errors quoted are derived from measurement of samples, background, and modern-age calibration, but do not include any half-life error. All samples were pretreated with 3N HCI, and some, where noted, were given additional pretreatment with 2% NaOH for the removal of possible humic contaminants.
