Absolute production rates of He 3 and Ne 21 in average L-chondrites have been determined from a least-squares fit of noble-gas to Al 26 data, for meteorites of age <2 × 10 6 yr in which Al 26 has not been built up to saturation levels. The values obtained, 2.48 ± 0.23 and 0.466 ± 0.031 × 10 14 cc STP g -1 yr -1 , are 24% higher than conventional values, based on H 3 measurements. Apparently all published radiation ages of stony meteorites based on conventional production rates are too high by 24%.
