Radiocarbon in dino bones
International conference result censored, by Carl Wieland
https://creation.com/c14-dinos
A team of researchers gave a presentation at the 2012 Western Pacific Geophysics Meeting in Singapore, August 13–17, at which they gave 14C dating results from many bone samples from eight dinosaur specimens. All gave dates ranging from 22,000 to 39,000 years, right in the ‘ballpark’ predicted by creationists.
I am no longer predicting a ball park like that for the Flood.
22,000 BP = 20,000 BC = the carbon date, according to my tables, of sth like 2850 BC, a bit more than a century after the Flood.*
39,000 BP = the actual carbon date for the Flood year itself, for 2958 BC.**
A creature as big as a typical dinosaur (typical to our imagination, not average), would have carbon that's decades old. This means, if the dinosaurs a) were from the Flood, and b) not contaminated, then they would carbon date older than 39,000 years.
However, before we totally dismiss these bones from being from the Flood itself, how about ... at least Morrisson Formation or Hell Creek Formation is at a Uranium ore deposit. And that's where many of the dinosaurs of the US were found.
Uranium near Carbon 12 can send off neutrons, which augment the neutron content into the carbon and make for more Carbon 14.
Barring that, I suggest, the dinosaurs could be post-Flood specimens.
