Provenance in geology, is the reconstruction of the origin of sediments. The Earth is a dynamic planet, and all rocks are subject to transition between the three main rock types: sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rocks (the rock cycle). Rocks exposed to the surface are sooner or later broken down into sediments. Sediments are expected to be able to provide evidence of the erosional history of their parent source rocks. The purpose of provenance study is to restore the tectonic, paleo-geographic and paleo-climatic history.

  • En géologie, la provenance (en français dans la littérature anglophone), est une sous-discipline du source to sink qui vise à déterminer l'origine de sédiments. Cette origine peut être géographique, en déterminant la région dont l'érosion a produit le sédiment, ou lithologique, en déduisant le type de roche dont est issu le sédiment. (fr)
