Geological Conservation Review

The Geological Conservation Review (GCR) is a systematic program in the UK aimed at identifying and documenting sites of geological importance. It highlights locations that showcase significant geological features, processes, or sequences, which are valuable for scientific research, education, and conservation. The GCR helps ensure these sites are recognized and protected, contributing to our understanding of Earth's history and promoting public awareness of geological heritage. By cataloging these important sites, the GCR supports informed decision-making in land use and conservation efforts.
