This list describes samples dated in this laboratory from January to November, 1972. Operating principles are as previously reported (Gillespie et al. 1972) using synthesized benzene for liquid scintillation counting. Ages are calculated using 0.95 NBS oxalic acid standard with reference to a.d. 1950 using Libby 5570 year half-life.
