Answer 1

Deposits of coal have been found beneath the ice of Antarctica. But coal only forms in warm swamps. ... According to Wegener's hypothesis, coal could be found near the South Pole because during the time of Pangaea, the South pole was near the equator causing it to be warm and allowing coal to form.
