Radiometric dating Techniques that determine the age of materials by measuring radioactive isotopes and their decay products. Widely used in geology, archaeology and planetary science.
Uranium–lead dating (U–Pb): principles, methods, and applications Uranium-lead dating Uranium–lead dating uses decay of 238U and 235U to lead isotopes to determine geologic ages from ~1 million to >4.5 billion years with high precision; widely applied to zircon and…
