Radiometric dating is a complex method for dating the rocks of the earth. There are only a few types of rock that can be dated, and potential problems that need to be avoided to give an accurate date for the rock sample.

Through research, physicists and geologists have determined that certain isotopes of elements will decay into new elements. Using the decay rate, and knowing the half-life of the isotope, a geologist can date a sample of rock and determine its age.

The Oldest Rock on Earth
It was believed that the first rocks on Earth formed during the Archean Eon, between 3.9 and 2.5 billion years ago. Recent discoveries suggest older rocks.

Sedimentary Rocks
Sedimentary rock formations are those which are formed by layer upon layer of sediment being laid down by natural forces. It is the stone in which history is hidden.

Rock Magnetism
Plate Tectonic theory revolutionized the science of geology. The study of magnetism in rocks was one of the keys that led to this grand unifying theory of geology.
