Finding natural resources equals understanding the Earth
Exploring for resources requires knowledge on the Earth's history and the principle resources are formed. Our group works on paleoenvironmental reconstruction through sedimentary facies analysis and microfossil study (nannofossil and foraminifera), toward contributing field of resouce sciences including petroleum geology.
