FYI there is an ontology for the geological timescale here 
https://github.com/CGI-IUGS/timescale-ont and a dataset representing the 
international chronostratigraphic chart nearby 
https://github.com/CGI-IUGS/timescale-data 
The International Commission on Stratigraphy are planning to adopt this as the 
point-of-truth for the standard geological timescale. 

This is possibly of overlapping scope with the DWC requirements.

ChronometricAge Task Group (https://www.tdwg.org/community/esp/chrono/) of the 
Earth Sciences and Paleontology Interest Group (
https://www.tdwg.org/community/esp/) has prepared a vocabulary enhancement for 
Darwin Core consisting of a ChronometricAge class and its properties. A minimum 
30-day period for public comment is now open (2020-11-21). To view the proposal 
and/or engage in the review, visit https://github.com/tdwg/chrono/issues/15,
