The Geologic time scale is how they are sure of which is found in the world In Asia they find a red clay deposit under a iron ore deposit In Africa they find a iridium-rich deposit under a red clay deposit In Canada they find this sequence: iron ore, red clay, iridium-rich In Europe they find red clay, iridium-rich, marble, granite When they piece together all of these sequences from around the world until they find a specific pattern in this example: iron ore, red clay, iridium-rich, marble, granite. However sometimes erosion or a drought or some other freak of nature happens that slightly changes the pattern.
