Geochronological Data for: Preliminary geologic map of the west half of the Emporia 30x60-minute quadrangle, Virginia and North Carolina
The Emporia 1:100,000-scale quadrangle straddles the Tidewater Fall Line in southern Virginia and includes a small part of northernmost North Carolina. Sediments of the coastal plain underlie the eastern three-fifths of this area. This data release contains geochronology from sediment samples collected in the eastern half of the Emporia 30’ x 60’ quadrangle, Virginia and North Carolina. It contains 17 luminescence dates on sediment and 5 radiocarbon data on organic material found in the sediments.
