Fossil resources, also known as fossil fuels, are natural fuels formed from the remains of dead plants and animals that lived millions of years ago. The primary fossil resources are coal, oil, and natural gas. These resources were created through a process called fossilization, where organic matter was subjected to immense heat and pressure over geological timescales.
Coal is a combustible black or brownish-black sedimentary rock, primarily composed of carbon along with variable
Petroleum, commonly known as crude oil, is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons found in underground rock formations.
Natural gas is a gaseous mixture, consisting mainly of methane, with smaller amounts of other hydrocarbons
