Radiocarbon, or <sup>14</sup>C, is the unstable, radioactive isotope of carbon having atomic number 6 and atomic mass 14. It is continuously produced in Earth's upper atmosphere by cosmic ray bombardment. In space, <sup>14</sup>C is produced when cosmic rays interact with oxygen in silicate minerals in rocks. The half-life of <sup>14</sup>C is 5730 years, which makes this radioactive isotope suitable for dating rocks and archaeological items as old as about 75,000 years.

Dark-colored, fine-grained extrusive igneous rock with about 52 to 63 weight percent silica (SiO<sub>2</sub>). Andesite consists mainly of plagioclase and one or more mafic minerals. The word andesite is derived from the Andes Mountains, located along the western edge of South America, where andesite rock is common.
