A scientist who studies rocks and minerals is known as a Geologist. Geologists use rocks and minerals to help them understand the history of our planet. They study different substances found in rocks such as fossils, metals, and oils to learn more about the earth's past. For instance, by looking at the characteristics of a rock, like its color, texture, and mineral composition, a geologist can predict where resources (like oil, gas, and precious metals) might be found, understand volcanic activities or even predict potential future earthquakes.
