Abstract
- High precision 40Ar/39Ar ages for two basaltic lava flows.
- Mass fractionation causes discordance in samples with low radiogenic 40Ar yield.
- 39Ar recoil affects samples with relatively high radiogenic 40Ar yield.
- Non-atmospheric (40Ar/36Ar)i for samples with atmospheric trapped compositions.
- Samples with atmospheric (40Ar/36Ar)i ratios give the best age estimates.
