The method known as OSL dating, or Optically Stimulated Luminescence, can be applied to any commonly found mineral exposed to daylight before it was buried and allows us to date any sedimentary deposit containing such minerals.

Simulation of optically-stimulated luminescence of zircon [PDF]
Mineral zircon, ZrSiO4, belongs to a class of materials that can be used as a chronological tool in geology and archaeology for measurements of the natural radiation dose and the sample age by optical methods.

A Bayesian analysis of luminescence dating [PDF]
Luminescence dating is a widespread dating method used in the fields of archaeology and Quaternary science. As an experimental method it is subject to various uncertainties in the determination of parameters that are used to evaluate age.
