Horizon A
Unweathered bedrock is typically found in the bedrock layer of the Earth's crust, which is known as the lithosphere. This layer is located beneath the soil, regolith, and weathered rock layers.
== == This layer is called bedrock.
Below the subsoil is the parent material or bedrock that the soil has developed from over time. This material is typically composed of unweathered rock or sediment.
The two layers of the Earth that are made of rock are the crust and the mantle. The crust is the outermost layer and is composed of solid rock, while the mantle lies just below the crust and consists of solid rock that is capable of flowing over long periods of time.
No, unweathered rock that underlies soil is typically referred to as bedrock, not subsoil. Subsoil is the layer of soil beneath the topsoil that is rich in minerals and nutrients.
Unweathered rock that lies below the subsoil is called bedrock. Bedrock forms the solid foundation of the Earth's crust and typically consists of compacted and consolidated rock material. It influences the landscape and can affect soil formation and water movement.
It is the bedrock.

No it is definitely not.
Every layer of rock, as one moves up from the core, is younger than the one below it. This means that the layers of rock above and below the coal are different ages, with the one above younger and the one below older.
Due to faulting or folding.

Tension in Earth's crust pulls rock apart, causing hanging walls. In a normal fault, the fault is at an angle, so one block of rock lies above the fault while the other block lies below the fault. The block of rock that lies above is called the hanging wall. The rock that lies below is called the footwall.
