Abstract. Although rigorous uncertainty reporting on (U–Th) / He dates is key for interpreting the expected distributions of within individual samples and comparing generated by different labs, methods formulae calculating single-grain have never been fully described published. Here we publish two procedures to derive date (linear Monte Carlo propagation) based input 4He, radionuclide, isotope-...
