contents The distribution of radioactivities in a large polymetallic encrustation (TECHNO) sampled from the Pacific sea floor has been studied in great detail. The study includes measurements of the long-lived U and Th decay series isotopes, alpha-particle tracks and SUP-10 Be and SUP-26 Al (Results on the latter two cosmonuclides have been reported by Guichard, Reyss and Yokoyama, 1978). The data are discussed in terms of their implication on age dating of the sample. Two interpretations of the data are presented leading to vastly different time scales for the formation of the sample. Here the opinion is divided among the authorship. One group, as well as Guichard et al (1978), favours the million-years scale and the other favors scale measured in thousands of years. The principal pros-and-cons aspects of the two views are mentioned.
