Notes: Equation used:
for 87Sr/86Sr = 0.708930 - 0.708789, BKFV age: Age (Ma) = 31799.78 - (87Sr/86Sr) X 44843.05, Age = 9.2-15.2 Ma; CK age: Age (Ma) = 26661.43 - (87Sr/86Sr) X 37593.98, Age = 9.9-15.2 Ma.
for 87Sr/86Sr = 0.7087889 - 0.708305, BKFV age: Age (Ma) = 10258.53 - (87Sr/86Sr) X 14450.87, Age = 15.6-22.8 Ma; CK age: Age (Ma) = 10393.19 - (87Sr/86Sr) X 14641.29, Age = 15.5-22.8 Ma.
for 87Sr/86Sr = 0.708304 - 0.708065, BKFV age: Age (Ma) = 20392.79 - (87Sr/86Sr) X 28758.84, Age > 22.8 Ma; CK age: Age (Ma) = 13803.52 - (87Sr/86Sr) X 19455.25 (Miller et al., 1988), Age = 23.2-28.0 Ma.
