Paleontology provides a different lens to view how our planet's 4,400 minerals developed over billions of years - both influencing and being influenced by our evolving biosphere. Learn how Earth's few primordial minerals interacting with liquid water, plate tectonics, and eventually photosynthesis would create an explosion of mineral species seen nowhere else in our solar system.
