Amdel service work report on uranium-lead [radiometric] dating of an outcrop sample [of the Boucaut Volcanics].
An absolute age of 677 Ma +/- 12 Ma was determined from analyses of six selected zircon grains separated from the subject volcanic rock sample, but the result is strongly affected by the need to impose large corrections to the data to compensate for...-
