K-Ar dating was carried out on groundmass fractions of five volcanic rock samples collected from the Odose Formation in the western Tsugaru district, Aomori Prefecture. Lava flows at different stratigraphic positions were sampled. Early to Middle Miocene ages ranging from about 20 Ma to 14 Ma were determined by the isotope dilution method. Three age determinations (19.7•}0.5 Ma, 19.1•}0.5 Ma, 18.2•}0.5 Ma) are reliable as they are concordant with stratigraphy, whereas another two (14.4•}0.4 Ma, 16.9•}0.5 Ma) are thought to have been affected by age lowering. On the basis of our results and existing radiometric ages, the Odose Formation is assigned to the upper Lower Miocene. The volcanic activity of this formation began about 20 Ma and ceased about 18 Ma; probably it was coeval with the paleomagnetically suggested counterclockwise rotation of Northeast Japan associated with the opening of the Japan Sea.
