Geology is the study of the Earth, its materials, structures, processes, and history. As a field, it encompasses a wide range of sub-disciplines, including mineralogy, sedimentology, and paleontology. One of the emerging sub-disciplines in geology is geological modelling. Geological modelling involves the use of mathematical algorithms and computer simulations to create a virtual representation of the Earth’s surface and subsurface. These models are then used to study and understand geological features, processes, and resources.
