English term or phrase: the lava intrusions into these sedimentary rocks
When one realizes that these radiometric dating schemes are the backbone of the famous investigations by palaeontologists such as the Leakeys in the Olduvai Gorge in Tanzania, East Africa (see earlier discussion of Lubenow’s review of these findings), one becomes aware of the doubtfulness of the reasoning which places one questionable assumption upon another. This is particularly evident when one bears in mind that the rocks in the immediate vicinity of the skulls found in the Olduvai Gorge cannot be dated directly because they are in sedimentary rock. Rather ***the lava intrusions into these sedimentary rocks*** are dated by radiometric methods. The further, little known, but intriguing finding is that radiocarbon dating of the skulls such as Zinjanthropus and Australopithecus gives dates of the order of 30,000 years as against the claimed 2 to 4 1⁄2 million years—this can hardly be dismissed as experimental error!
