Popis: Dating of very young igneous activity has been hampered by lack of suitable chronometers. We report here the results of 3He surface exposure dating (Kurz, 1986a,b; Craig and Poreda, 1986) for lavas from the Potrillo volcanic field. This field is particularly suited to the technique because it has well-preserved, young (
