The BGS Rock Classification Scheme
The BGS Rock Classification Scheme classifies all types of earth material or other substance that may be recorded in a geological log or section. This is a combined scheme that consists of all concepts from the 3 sub-schemes. The 3 sub-schemes cover different sets of terms (single rocks, composite rocks, dummy rocks) and have different semantics of hierarchical relationship
Divisions of geological time from source table DIC_GEOCHRON. The BGS Geochronology Dataset is based on The Geologic Time Scale 2012 by F M Gradstein, J G Ogg, M Schmitz and G Ogg (2012), with additions. The result is a composite geological time scale that will be updated as improved timescales become available.

Description
Description may include but is not limited to: an abstract, a table of contents, a graphical representation, or a free-text account of the resource.
Identifier
Recommended practice is to identify the resource by means of a string conforming to an identification system. Examples include International Standard Book Number (ISBN), Digital Object Identifier (DOI), and Uniform Resource Name (URN). Persistent identifiers should be provided as HTTP URIs.
Source
This property is intended to be used with non-literal values. The described resource may be derived from the related resource in whole or in part. Best practice is to identify the related resource by means of a URI or a string conforming to a formal identification system.
Title
Status
Type
alternative label
An alternative lexical label for a resource.
has broader
Relates a concept to a concept that is more general in meaning.
definition
A statement or formal explanation of the meaning of a concept.
is in scheme
Relates a resource (for example a concept) to a concept scheme in which it is included.
notation
A notation, also known as classification code, is a string of characters such as "T58.5" or "303.4833" used to uniquely identify a concept within the scope of a given concept scheme.
preferred label
The preferred lexical label for a resource, in a given language.
This vocabulary is a re-published and only marginally changed version of the Registry Ontology's (http://epimorphics.com/public/vocabulary/Registry.html) *Status* vocabulary (online in RDF: http://purl.org/linked-data/registry). The only real change to content has been the addition of the term `unstable`. This re-publication has been performed to allow the IRIs of each vocab term (skos:Concept) to resolve to both human-readable and machine-readable forms of content (HTML and RDF), using HTTP content negotiation. Note that just like the original form of this vocabulary, while it is a SKOS vocabulary implemented as a single skos:ConceptScheme, it is also an OWL Ontology and that each *Status* is both a skos:Concept and a reg:Status individual.

Coal
Coal - A type of sedimentary-rock rich in organic matter. British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/03, section 6.
Carboniferous Period
Carboniferous Period is the fifth of the six periods of the Paleozoic Era. It is preceded by the Devonian Period and succeeded by the Permian Period (Geologic Time Scale 2020, figs. 2.1, 23.1; https://timescalefoundation.org/).
Mudstone, sandstone and siltstone with subsidiary coal, ironstone and seat-earth mudstone and trace ganister and seat-earth sandstone. Stratified bedrock. Occurs onshore. Deposited during the Duckmantian Substage - to - Bolsovian Substage (Carboniferous Period) (318-310 Ma BP).
Pennine Middle Coal Measures Formation
Stratified bedrock. Occurs onshore. Age not entered.
Bed
Bed is the smallest formal unit in the hierarchy of sedimentary lithostratigraphical units. Bed names are commonly applied to distinctive units that may be thin and laterally restricted or known only from a borehole or single exposure. Some beds may be fossiliferous or yield dateable material (e.g. a soil, peat or bone bed). Bed status tends to be assigned for units with some palaeogeographical, geochronological or specific lithological significance. This term forms part of the internationally accepted framework for classifying lithostratigraphical units, and has Rank 6 (McMillan, A A, Hamblin, R J O and Merritt, J W. 2011. A lithostratigraphical framework for onshore Quaternary and Neogene (Tertiary) superficial deposits of Great Britain and the Isle of Man. British Geological Survey Research Report, RR/10/03. 343pp.).
BGS Lexicon of Named Rock Units
The BGS Lexicon of Named Rock Units provides our definitions of the lithostratigraphic, lithodemic and lithomorphogenetic geological units of the UK and its continental shelf
Concept
An idea or notion; a unit of thought.
Duckmantian Substage
Duckmantian Substage is a substage in the British regional Carboniferous stratigraphic scheme. It is the second of four substages of the Westphalian Stage. It is preceded by the Langsettian Substage and succeeded by the Bolsovian Substage (Geologic Time Scale 2020, fig. 23.5). Replaces: Westphalian Substage B.
