Extensive notes explaining the environments, formation, extraction, prospecting techniques, hazards and environmental considerations of coal, hydrocarbons, metallic ores, igneous associations, sedimentary associations and non-metallic minerals

In-depth notes describing factors controlling metamorphic processes, metamorphic environments (dynamic, burial, contact and regional), chemical equilibrium changes during metamorphism, metamorphic structures and textures and pressure-temperature-time graphs

Notes describing factors affecting rock behaviour, principal stress orientations of different types of faults, fault indicators, folding mechanisms, cleavage-bedding relationships, fault reactivation, and interpreting block diagrams and maps

In-depth notes explaining the generation of magma at divergent boundaries, intraplate settings (hotspots) and convergent boundaries, the generation of granite, advanced radiometric dating, igneous bodies and igneous processes

Descriptive notes explaining the fossil record, lagerstatten, evolutionary trends, evolution of vertebrates, mass extinctions, global climate, evidence for past climates, the influence of greenhouse gases, tectonics and volcanoes on the environment, and the Anthropocene.
