Luminescence and Radiocarbon data for: Geologic map of the Big Levels Quadrangle, Virginia
At the Rockbridge Stone Products sand and gravel open pit mine along Loves Run, two Optically Stimulated Luminescence samples from an f2 fan deposit yielded dates from ca. 157 to 139 ka (Carter and others, 2017). These two ages were used to define the Pleistocene map units within the quad.
