On really old bobes they don't date the bones which, have been acreated by minreals in any case. They date the strata in which the remains are found. It's common to date something at 145 million years within 3 million years plus or minus. They can date rock back to 3.8 billion and have.

They can also used michodrial DNA, in case of homoides, or other species related to current ones. In some cases, the DNA strand has sustained some damage, but it is sometimes enough to know where it belongs in the tree, and give it an appropriate dating. Of course, geological layers play a big roles, but its not always foolproof!
