Re: Skeletal apatite again

[Miles Crenshaw <mac@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For fossil skeletal apatites may I suggest that apatites from 
living animals as a starting point.  A large amount has been published on 
trace element uptake and half-life and on Ca/P ratios.

You can subscribe to a list that deals with apatites of extant animals.

Send the following message to listserv@um.usc.edu

	subscribe Calcif-L your name.

This list is supervised by Malcolm Snead (mlsnead@zygote.hsc.usc.edu).
Silly comments about subscribe requests that are sent to the wrong 
address are not forwarded.  Alarms about "Good Times" also are not forwarded.
