Re: assessment at this point
This would need some sorting out. Mostly dating does nothing but produce information for feeding the ToE which is just this big useless fantasy about the past, of little to no usefulness in practical science.
Though the people that find the gas and oil that heat and cool your house, provide electricity for your computer, and fuel your car might disagree with you. They don't go looking for the Bolivina mexicana zone of the South Louisiana Miocene just because it sounds neat.

Re: assessment at this point
Mostly what is of importance is simply the underground configurations, the contents of the rocks, and the ancient age terminology is mostly windowdressing.
Bullcrap. The whole science of which rocks are probable source rocks for hydrocarbons is based on their thermal maturity - how many millions of years they've spent a what temperature. Chevron-Phillips and Exxon-Mobil may not know who they own this week, but they know real well that oil ain't from the Floode.

Re: assessment at this point
They don't *know* what temperatures were in the past except by evo theory and their formulas are based on that.
Ah, but they do know the temperatures through vitrinite reflectance and through the phases that are present in fluid inclusions in crystals in the rocks. Those are methods based on experiment. Sorry 'bout that, Faith.

Re: assessment at this point
NOBODY CAN POSSIBLY KNOW WHAT they claim to know about the distant past.
Excluding Faith, of course. She seems to KNOW just peachy-keen fine.
