EXAMINATION OF BULK SOIL FOR RADIOCARBON DATABLE MATERIAL FROM THE ANTON SCARP AND CHEYENNE PLAINS PIPELINE TRENCHES, COLORADO
Author(s): Kathryn Puseman
Year: 2005
Summary
Five bulk soil samples from the Anton Scarp and Cheyenne Plains Pipeline Trenches in
eastern Colorado were submitted for particle size determination and were floated to recover
organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon analysis. These samples were recovered from
organic-rich silt representing modem or buried A soil horizons. Because these samples did not
contain sufficient charred organic material for radiocarbon dating, dates were obtained on
humates extracted from the soil.
