	Geology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Geology (from Greek γη- (ge-, "the earth") and λογος (logos, "word", "reason")) is the science and study of the Earth, its composition, structure, physical properties, history, and the processes that shape it.
		The word "geology" was first used by Jean-André Deluc in the year 1778 and introduced as a fixed term by Horace-Bénédict de Saussure in the year 1779.
		In geology, when an igneous intrusion cuts across a formation of sedimentary rock, it can be determined that the igneous intrusion is younger than the sedimentary rock.

		Geology (from Greek γη- (ge-, "the earth") and λογος (logos, "science")) is the science and study of the earth, its history, and the processes that shape it.
		Geology is also sometimes used about similar studies of other bodies of the solar system.
		Subdisciplines within geology proper include structural geology, sedimentology and stratigraphy, mineralogy (study of minerals), petrology (study of rocks), geomorphology (study of landforms), seismology (also a field in geophysics) and volcanology (the study of volcanic activity).

	GEOLOGY FACTS AND INFORMATION
		By 1827 Charles_Lyell's ''Principles of Geology'' reiterated Hutton's uniformitarianism, which influenced the thought of Charles_Darwin.
		The theory of continental drift was proposed by Alfred_Wegener in 1912 and by Arthur_Holmes, but wasn't broadly accepted until the 1960s when the theory of plate tectonics was developed.
		A fundamental principle of geology advanced by the 18th century Scottish physician and geologist James_Hutton, is that "The Present is the Key to the Past." In Hutton's words: "the past history of our globe must be explained by what can be seen to be happening now."
