Geodiversity incorporates all the variety of rocks, minerals and landforms and the processes which have formed these features through geological time. Best known are those rare and exceptional occurrences such as dinosaur footprints, but there are many more less-exceptional but equally important pieces of the geological jig-saw puzzle, which, when added together, give insight to past climates, earlier environments and life on earth.
Geological features seen at working quarries give an unique insight to the surrounding geology. The nature of quarry operations rarely permits detailed study and much geological information generally goes unrecorded and is therefore lost.
