摘要
The ESR dating technique and the TL dating technique were applied to the same samples of quartz grains, which were heated during a pumice eruption dated at 580 +/- 20 ka by means of 40Ar/39Ar single grain laser fusion. The additive dose technique was used. The age obtained by use of the red TL quartz, 544 +/- 42 ka, was in agreement with the expected age. The Al and Ti paramagnetic centres of quartz gave highly scattered age results, depending on the regression method that was used; for this reason, it was not possible to propose any reliable ESR age. This seems to confirm the analysis of the relevant literature, which suggests that the long-range dating limit of the technique is below half a million years.
