Want this question answered?
some of the ways geologists study rocks in the field are they look for ''outcrop areas'', or ''outcrops'', which are outside places where much rock, mineral, crystal or gem is exposed.
Seismologists
Because there is lots more to be learned about it. And because some of that knowledge may be useful to us in more direct ways.
There are many reasons for why geology is science. Here are a few to start with. Geologists use the scientific method to conduct their research, just as any other scientist does. There are also ways for which other branches of science are applied to geology. Rock/mineral composition is related to chemistry. Plate tectonics, especially earthquakes, are measured and tracked through vibrations which are a direct application of physics. The US geological survey also studies some wildlife, which is a study of biology.

geologists can study a rock sample by observing its composition, color, and texture. they also look at the rocks structure, hardness and weight.
In what ways are fossils useful to geologist?
Geologists use iron is a numerous ways mostly they are mined for there metallic content and could be used for construction purposes.
Science
study.
sedimentary,metormorphic , igneous .........
texture,size,show,and colour
Ecologist study population by mark and recaptur tagged and released.
they have to look at the mineral.see what color it is.see the shape.how does it feel to you........?
