The present list contains dates of samples measured since our previous list (R., 1971, v. 13, p. 135–140). As before, age calculations are based on the Libby half-life 5568 ± 30 yr, and reported in years before 1950. The modern standard is 0.950 of the activity of NBS oxalic acid, giving a net counting rate of 21.68cpm. The background count is measured by a series of inactive samples such as marble, anthracite, petroleum coke, and old natural methane. Background count of these samples give a mean value of 6.05cpm. It is observed that marble always gives the highest value of background count while natural methane gives the lowest. Results, however, are within ± 1 σ of the mean value.
