Carbon-14 Dating Sediment
For all sediment types, regardless of the carbon-14 dating technique, the Beta Analytic lab typically sieves all samples (between 125 to 180 microns) in an attempt to remove and isolate any macrofossils (plant, shell, etc). If macrofossils are found in sufficient quantities, the lab pretreats them according to the material type and then provides the submitter with a list of available material types for dating as well as the techniques required for each based on their quantities.
Clients submitting sediments are encouraged to contact the lab before preparing the samples. Beta Analytic lab managers welcome inquiries regarding sample preparation of sediments for carbon-14 dating.
