The cosmic ray exposure ages of deep sea metalic lie spherules were determined by various methods; low level countings (Ni-59), neutron activation analysis (Mn-53), high energy accelerator mass spectrometry (Be-10, Al-26) and mass spectrometry (K isotopes). The exposure ages of 0.3 - 50 Ma were obtained. According to Poynting-Robertson effect, the starting points (supplying sources) are located at inner region of the orbit of Saturn.
