The geological history of the Earth refers to the sequence of events and changes that have occurred in the Earth's rocks, minerals, and landforms over billions of years. It involves the study of geological processes, such as plate tectonics, erosion, sedimentation, and volcanic activity, as well as the formation of various geological features. Here is a general overview of the geological history of the Earth: 1. Precambrian Eon: This eon spans from the formation of the Earth about 4.6 billion years ago to the beginning of the Phanerozoic Eon about 541 million years ago. The Precambrian Eon is further divided into three eras: the Hadean, Archean, and Proterozoic. - Hadean Eon: During this period, the Earth was undergoing intense heat and volcanic activity. There is limited geological evidence available from this time due to extensive geological processes and the lack of preserved rocks. - Archean Eon: The Archean Eon is characterized by the formation of the Eart...
