Online exhibits Geologic time scale Take a journey back through the history of the Earth — jump to a specific time period using the time scale below and examine ancient life, climates, and geography.
You might wish to start in the Cenozoic Era (65.5 million years ago to the present) and work back through time, or start with Hadean time (4.6 to 4 billion years ago)* and journey forward to the present day — it's your choice.

Click Link: Alpha Particles = 2 protons and 2 neutrons bonded together into a particle identical to a helium nucleus. Halflife. The applet lists a "halflife" for each radioactive isotope.
What does that mean? The halflife is the amount of time it takes for half of the atoms in a sample to decay. The halflife for a given isotope is always the same ; it doesn't depend on how many atoms you have or on how long they've been sitting around. For example, the applet will tell you that the halflife of beryllium 11 is 13.81 seconds. Let's say you start with, oh, 16 grams of 11Be. Radioactive Dating Game - Carbon Dating, Radiometric Dating, Half Life. Fossil Fishes of the Bear Gulch Limestone. The Bear Gulch Limestone (Mississippian of Montana) is what is known as a lagerstätte, a well-bedded sequence of limestone layers containing an extremely well-preserved assemblage of fossils.
This deposit has yielded one of the most diverse and well preserved fossil fish assemblages in the world. We have excavated approximately 130 species of fish from this deposit over the last 35 years.

The type of rocks in which dinosaur fossils (and almost all other fossils) are found is called sedimentary rock. Lab10_Biostratigraphy_I.pdf. Welcome to Virtual Age - Dating.
