Geology of California

Geology of California introduces the state's major geologic features, from the Sierra Nevada to the San Andreas fault, and explores the processes that have created and continue to shape them today. It also reviews the nearly two billion years of Earth's history recorded in California's rocks as a guide to the origin of the region's mineral wealth and clues to what its geologic future may hold.
