Weathering and Erosion and Natural Resources

Why do you think weathering and erosion would affect where some natural resources could be found?

If there is lots of rocks in one area ,few or no plants would grow there so the plants won't die and you need dead plants to make coal.

Weathering and erosion can affect diamonds and coal.

If the natural resources are in an enviorment that changes constntly then some of the coal could move places

Weathering and erosion can affect some natural resources because say if it was
gold and it was in clear sight then weathering or erosion would happen it would hide the gold which it won't be easy to find.

Weathering and erosion would affect where some natural resources could be found because weathering breaks down rock and erosion moves the rock. What can happen is weathering breaks down the natural resource and erosion can move it to another area underground.

heat and presser can turn coal to diamonds

I think it could effect gold because it would mud all on top

Erosion happens at the tops of mountains and under the soil. Water and chemicals get into the rocks and break them up through those mechanical and chemical forces. Erosion in one area can actually build up lower areas. Think about a mountain range and a river. As the mountain erodes, the river carries sediment downstream towards the ocean. That sediment slowly builds up and creates new wetlands at the mouth of the river. The swamps of Louisiana are good examples of sediment carried by the Mississippi River and collected at the end.

Weathering and Erosion could effect places where recourses are found because they would ruin the climate or the area so the recourses would die and there would be no more coal, gold, silver, etc...

Weathering and erosion can make coal, diamonds, and coal from forming in different forms.

it can effect coal to diomonds

Weathering and erosion could affect the places of some natural resources can be found because some wind erosion can knock down some rocks and create a landslide which moves dead plants to other places like moving the plant matter which could move coal when it forms

Weathering and Erosion would affect where some natural resources could be found because Weathering could move sediment and minerals from place to place after Erosion breaks it down from Mountains or large rocks.

weathering and erosion can effect natural resource because weathering and erosion can move those natural resource around

The sun could affect where natural resources could be found, because the sun could be out to much and water could run out in a certain area.

because it could move them.

Lizzy said...

It could flood and destroy processes.

Kyle G said...

weather and erosion can make it so it will effect coal and gold

Emily said...

Weathering and erosion.

Sophia.D said...

rain water could effect were natural resources could be found.

Daniel.B said...

because it wares it down and it could ware down some of the stuff we use or stuff er are looking for.

Gabe L said...

weathering and erosion can make diamonds, and coal from forming in different forms.

Lily G. said...

It would stop other natural resources.

Weathering and Erosion can affect the places natural resources can be found by destroying the areas they are found so they aren't found. Or it can ruin things around the area the natural resources are in and put them in plane sight. It can also ruin the natural resource.

jada f said...

there was a lots of rocks then the donky had to get it out and then a lot of gold

Breanna C said...

Weathering and erosion can form diamonds in different shapes

Lauren Pride said...

Weathering and erosion would affect where some natural recourses could be found is that some acid rain could come down and erod a gold mine or pretty much anything elts.

Jordan T. said...

weathering and erosion can affect natural resources by waering them down until they are all gone and ruined

Kylie M. said...

It could affect where natural reources could be found. Because the sun and the water could run out and the resources would die.

Weathering and erosion would affect where you find some resources, and even get rid of some. Erosion might erode the rock around the resource, and make it easier to find.

Allison said...

there were a lot of rocks in the area and because they can move

Weathering and erosion effect resources because they move everything around but in a way, shape the world!

Weathering and erosion are one of the main factor on how most rocks exist! They shape, and move around certain rocks and minerals.

easy to pan for gold

weathering and erosion can affect the diamonds and coal

they move and shape something

Weathering and erosion can affect diamonds and coal.

Raven Da Wolfie said...

I think it could affect some weathering because humans can ruin things the environment can be destroyed and a lot of others

Lily🐬 said...

Because with weathering and erosion, land slides and moves around.

Thomas Sampson said...

could cause rock slides and move the resources.

Ryan R said...

it could rip and tear rocks and reveal resources like gold iron copper and diamond silver uranium.

Anonymous said...

because there could be some minerals close to the surface and erosion could pull them out and scatter them everywhere

Weathering and erosion can break down rocks in an area so there are less rocks.

Weathering and erosion can break down the earth and reveal ores and minerals

I think weathering and erosion would affect where some natural resources are cause they break the rocks down and scattered and move by weathering and erosion.

Weathering and erosion can make coal, diamonds, and coal from forming in different forms.

If there's Rocks and Plants the Rocks would crush the plant making it harder to get resources

Weathering and erosion can affect the placement of natural resources across the world by moving certain resources to different places through their processes.

Wetting and erosion can affect diamonds and coal.

weathering and erosion could affect gold because the rocks on top would break the gold into small bits.
