Hi,
Could someone provide the formula to calculate a Pb model age?
I am aware that Isoplot function "SingleStagePbT" calculates a model age relative to the Stacey-Kramers curve, but I would like to know the formula behind the calculation (in addition, that would allow me to calculate model ages relative to other curves/models).
Thanks in advance!
Well,
Origins of 210 Pb dating The basic methodology 210 Pb dating of was established in a ground-breaking paper by Goldberg (1963).

Hi Bayan, thanks for you answer.
I was referring to Stacey-Kramers model age (206Pb and 207Pb).
An age range must be known to interpolate the slopes using the measured Pb ratios of the sample and the ones given by the two stage S & K model. In addition, the difference between these slopes must be known. The age calculated in this way is considered to be as the age of extraction of Pb from its reservoir (see Faure, 2005; p. 266-267).
