Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the geological history of the Silurian rocks found in Scotland, focusing on the Southern Uplands region. The study of these ancient rock formations has been instrumental in shaping our understanding of the Earth's history, particularly during the period known as the Silurian, around 444 to 419 million years ago. Through detailed analysis of fossils, rock formations, and geological structures, the author provides a comprehensive account of the different types of Silurian rocks found in the region, their origins, and the environments in which they were formed. The book explores how this ancient landscape has been shaped over time by geological processes, including folding, faulting, and erosion.
