The table summarizes evidence from three locations.
Evidence table:
- Location 1: Thick layers of sandstone and shale; fossils in some layers; very deep burial shown by tightly compacted layers.
- Location 2: Fresh lava flows and ash; thin soil; no thick sediment layers.
- Location 3: Exposed granite at the surface; many cracks; little sediment cover.
A class is deciding where coal is most likely to be found. Coal forms from buried plant material in sedimentary environments over millions of years, and geology controls where it occurs.
Based on the evidence, which location is the best choice?
