    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uranium–lead_dating

    Uranium–lead dating, abbreviated U–Pb dating, is one of the oldest [1] and most refined of the radiometric dating schemes. It can be used to date rocks that formed and crystallised from about 1 million years to over 4.5 billion years ago with routine precisions in the 0.1–1 percent range.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubidium–strontium_dating

    The rubidium–strontium dating method (Rb–Sr) is a radiometric dating technique, used by scientists to determine the age of rocks and minerals from their content of specific isotopes of rubidium (87 Rb) and strontium (87 Sr, 86 Sr). One of the two naturally occurring isotopes of rubidium, 87 Rb, decays to 87 Sr with a half-life of 49.23 ...

    Isochron dating is a common technique of radiometric dating and is applied to date certain events, such as crystallization, metamorphism, shock events, and differentiation of precursor melts, in the history of rocks.

    Uranium–thorium dating, also called thorium-230 dating, uranium-series disequilibrium dating or uranium-series dating, is a radiometric dating technique established in the 1960s which has been used since the 1970s to determine the age of calcium carbonate materials such as speleothem or coral.

  9. Uranium–uranium dating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uranium–uranium_dating

    Uranium–uranium dating is a radiometric dating technique which compares two isotopes of uranium (U) in a sample: uranium-234 (234 U) and uranium-238 (238 U). It is one of several radiometric dating techniques exploiting the uranium radioactive decay series, in which 238 U undergoes 14 alpha and beta decay events on the way to the stable isotope 206 Pb.
