Which continents contain coal fields that provide evidence for continental drift? check all that apply. africa eurasia antarctica south america north america

The correct answers are:

- Eurasia;

- North America;

- Africa;

- South America;

The coal fields can be found on every continent in the world, apart from Antarctica, but we should keep in mind that Antarctica is still not explored, so there's a high chance of having coal fields on it as well.

Most of the coal fields in the world are located in Eurasia, North America, and Australia. Even though there's coal fields in Africa and South America too, they are much less, and much smaller. Since the coal originates from a single geological period, the Carboniferous, and it is formed by specific types of trees, it is a nice evidence that the continents were all once merged together, where the same species of trees, in a same or similar environment, existed and died off, thus giving the material for the coal we use in the present.
