The dead plant material fell to the ground and was covered
by mud and sand. Eventually it was covered by even more
mud and sand and the high temperatures and pressures
caused coal to form over millions of years
Oil and Gas were formed from dead plant and animal
material generally under the sea.
The dead plants and animals fall to the sea bed and were
covered by mud and sand. Eventually they were covered by
