ABSOLUTE AGE

Domain	Definition
Geography	Geologic age of sediments determiningd by their natural radioactivity. Source: European Union. (references)
Geological	The approximate age of a geologic event, feature, fossil, or rock in years. 'Absolute' ages are determined by using natural radioactive 'clocks'. The preferred term is radiometric age. (references)
Mining	The geologic age of a fossil organism, rock, or geologic feature or event given in units of time, usually years. Commonly used as a syn. of isotopic age or radiometric age, but may also refer to ages obtained from tree rings, varves, etc. Term is now in disfavor as it implies a certainty or exactness that may not be possible by present dating methods; i.e., two absolute ages for the same pluton may disagree by hundreds of millions ofyears. CF:relative age. (references)
