  • Microfossils are fossils that are generally between 0.001 mm and 1mm in size, the study of which requires the use of electron microscopy.
  • Coal, petroleum and natural gas are called fossil fuels because these were formed from the dead remains of living organisms (fossils).
  • Palaeobotany is the study of fossil plants.
  • Hence the possibility of the occurrence of coal in an area,s determined by the study of microfossils (palaeobotany).
  • So, the correct answer is 'Microfossils'.
