I would love more of this. Very educational. Thank you for posting.

Thank you, sir. This is the clearest explanation of the geology of Newfoundland ever.

I've been watching these over the Christmas break, and I've learned so much, particularly about how the formation of Komattite was restricted to the archean, which I find fascinating.

This was so great to watch! I studied Geology and worked as a Geo for many years before moving into other career paths. I was and still am fascinated by Geologic History and this course material. Thank you so much for creating and sharing this content.

Mr Kerr this is an absolutely amazing presentation. I'm writing a list of must visit places when I get the chance to hit the road this summer. Spoilt for choice. I'm two hours in and on the edge of my seat, seriously. Many thanks.

Thank you everyone for the feedback! I didn't expect this to be so well received. I will be posting more educational videos in the future on another one of my channels! I will post the channel link in this comment thread once I do :)

This is amazing stuff. So interesting even seeing how Southern Ontario was formed in three of the Wilson cycles and you can see it, I found it difficult previously to get accurate information about the formation previously. Very informative. Any more you can share? Thank you.

Thus far this is the best organized, and the easiest to understand presentation on the history of early Earth. Is there a recommended companion book to compliment this video ?

I would love a lecture on green stone belts (gsb), particularly the suite of 4 gsb in central Canada, their geological history perhaps their provenance too. They are good witness for plate tectonics.

There’s very little information on the geology of Canada online. This fills a void. I wish there was more.

Great course and teaching! Glad I found this. One suggestion please, try not to say ‘right’ so often. It’s like saying ‘Um’ or other verbal crutch.
