EXAMINATION OF BULK SOIL FOR RADIOCARBON DATABLE MATERIAL FROM A MATRIX SUPPORTED DEBRIS FLOW NEAR LUNING, NEVADA (2003)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Kathryn Puseman.

A single bulk soil sample from a massive matrix supported debris flow unit on which the current/modern soil is developing was floated to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon analysis. This sample was recovered from the mouth of a canyon near Luning, Nevada. Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable material was separated.
