This list reports C14 measurements made in projects completed in the year ending October, 1969, and some measurements for projects still in progress. Age calculations are based on C14 half-life of 5568 years and a modern standard of 95% of NBS oxalic acid. Deviations reported are based on counting statistics of sample, background, and modern, and are ± 1σ except that when sample count approaches either modern or background, 2σ limits are reported. The laboratory uses liquid scintillation counting of benzene, with Li2C2 and vanadium activated catalyst in preparation. Chemical yields average 88%.
