Lol look you couldn't do it, shocker.
t is has been known for over two decades that the paleomagnetism of volcanics may yield emplacement age clues, once the paleomagnetic directions retrieved from loosely dated flows are compared to an independently obtained reference curve of the paleosecular variation (PSV) of the geomagnetic field. This approach was attempted at Etna almost a century ago [Chevallier, 1925] and was successfully applied more recently to lavas from Vesuvio [Hoye, 1981] and Etna [Tanguy et al., 1985; Rolph and Shaw, 1986]. This “paleomagnetic dating” method may represent in principle the most powerful dating tool for recent (i.e., up to few thousand years ago) volcanics, where soils (datable by 14C methods) hardly develop if the eruption rate is high. Furthermore, detailing the eruption ages for the last few centuries or millennia is fundamental to constrain the future hazard, as eruptions are often framed into repetitive “volcanic cycles,” displaying similar characteristics both in terms of types and timing of eruptions.
Paleomagnetism provides data that are important in the interpretation of geological processes. For paleomagnetic results to be reliable for this purpose, several stringent conditions must be fulfilled. First, a rock under investigation must be able to record accurately the direction and intensity of the weak geomagnetic field during its formation or later alteration. This requires an understanding of the magnetic properties of rocks and minerals. Second, the age of acquisition of the rock’s magnetization, or its subsequent alteration, must be well known. Field tests based on the local and regional geology of a sampling site are valuable in this respect. Third, the remanent magnetization of the rock must possess outstanding stability in order to be able to persist...
This approach is demonstrated on a stalagmite collected from the Soprador do Carvalho cave in the Central Region of Portugal. A radioisotopic age model, built using four U-series ages and three 14C, suggests relatively steady carbonate precipitation from ~ 5760 BCE until ~ 1920 CE. Forty-five 6 mm-thick subsamples were analyzed using alternating field and thermal demagnetization protocols, providing well-defined, primary magnetic directions. An age model of the stalagmite was obtained by fitting its paleomagnetic record with the reference paleosecular variation curves obtained by previous paleo-reconstruction models, applying statistical bootstrapping analysis to define their best fit. The resulting age models fit closely with the radioisotopic age model but provide a significantly higher time resolution. We reach the same conclusion when applying this approach to another stalagmite from the Algarve region of Portugal. Our approach thus appears a promising alternative to date young speleothems with high detrital contents.

D'oh!
Firmament done it.
"water did it", makes more sense than "the ocean floor raised 5 miles above sea level". Imagine the absurdity of supposing those marine fossils would have remained on the surface all throughout those hundreds of millions of years that it theoretically took Everest to emerge out of the ocean.

Where did the water go or come from a global flood would mean that there is more water underground then on the surface . Somehow it would have had to be pushed from underground , Did our core swell or was there a underground earthquake that opened a crack to the core and the vast underground ocean was turned into steam and released into the air -
Nice copy and paste

Thats all you've done. Copy and paste from religious websites trying to pass themselves off as scientific. Yet you complain when some does the same to prove you wrong?
And now your just copying and pasting the same over and over to try and prove your incorrect point.

Please tell me where the 813,875,076 miles³ of rain water came from considering there's only about 332,500,000 miles³ on and in the Earth.
Did God pee it out and then suck it back up??

The one thing we know for sure from geology is that a global flood never happened," said David Montgomery, a professor of geomorphology at the University of Washington in Seattle and author of "The Rocks Don't Lie: A Geologist Investigates Noah's Flood" (W. W. Norton & Company, 2012). "If you look at it as literally a global flood that covered the world's highest mountains, I'm sorry, there's just not enough water on Earth to do that," he told Live Science.
If the "heavens" opened and all of the water in the atmosphere came down at once as rain, the planet would be submerged — but only to a depth of about 1 inch (2.5 centimeters), according to the U.S. Geological Survey. That's not enough water to justify a canoe, let alone a massive ark.
But what if more than the water in the "heavens" were considered? If all the world's glaciers and ice sheets were to melt, then sea levels would rise by more than 195 feet (60 meters), according to NASA, which would add a bit more water. Moreover, a 2016 study published in the journal Nature Geoscience estimated that there's 5.4 million cubic miles (22.6 million cubic kilometers) of groundwater stored in the upper 1.2 miles (2 km) of Earth's crust, which is enough to cover the land to a depth of 590 feet (180 m). That's a lot of water, but there are cities thousands of feet above sea level, and Mount Everest, the highest mountain on Earth, is more than 29,000 feet (8,849 m) above sea level. On top of that, geologists don't see evidence for a global flood in the rock record.
"That's not even considering how long it would have taken the waters to recede. Because the entire planet is now water, the floodwater can't drain anywhere, and can only be removed with evaporation. Based on the 2mm/day evaporation rate of water, it would have taken *4 billion and 420 million* days for the floodwaters to all evaporate. If the earth is covered in water for 12.1 million years, everything we know and love as an animal is most definitely dead, including Noah."

I can't understand how the people who believe in imaginary friends think they can magic 3 times the amout of water needed to cover the Earth.

AND ... all that water couldn't drain anywhere, it could only disappear by evaporation which would have taken 12 million years to do.

Because of personal experience, I believe in a God ... but that doesn't mean I have to turn my brain off and believe that the Noahs Ark story is literal truth. It obviously isn't. The evidence against it is overwhelming. Since this thread is only supposed to be about the rocks, I have refrained from posting the mountains of other evidence that prove beyond any doubt that Noahs Flood didn't happen. I'm itching to though ...
