EXAMINATION OF SOIL FOR RADIOCARBON DATABLE MATERIAL AND AMS RADIOCARBON DATING OF SAMPLES FROM THE WASATCH FAULT, UTAH
Author(s): Kathryn Puseman; R.A. Varney
Year: 2007
Summary
Seven bulk soil samples were floated to recover organic fragments suitable for
radiocarbon analysis. These samples were recovered from the Wasatch Fault in eastern Utah.
Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable
material was separated. Only one sample contained macroscopic pieces of charcoal; therefore,
the remaining six samples were processed to extract microscopic pieces of charcoal for dating.
AMS radiocarbon dates were obtained for all seven samples.
