'''Bedrock''' is the native ''consolidated'' rock underlying the [[Earth]]'s surface in a particular area. Above the bedrock is usually an area of broken and weathered ''unconsolidated'' rock in the basal [[subsoil]]. The term notes that the fact that the rock lies in beds, or strata.

'''Diavik Airport''' {{Airport codes|||CDK2}}, is a private aerodrome in the [[Northwest Territories]], [[Canada]] that serves the [[Diavik Diamond Mine]]. It's situated in a busy area due to the closeness of [[Ekati Airport]]. Prior permission is required to land except in the case of an emergency.
The term bedrock may be somewhat misleading, since in many locations, the bedrock may change over a short distance, or the technical bedrock may be a thin stratum overlying quite different rock. Under any given ___location on the surface of the planet, rock will be found.

Viewing of a [[geologic map]] of the area usually will show bands of differing rock type exposure in an area. What the map is showing is what rock would be exposed at the surface if all [[soil]] were removed. Usually, these bands reflect the exposure of different rock strata, or layers. These may change either because the strata are flat, but the surface has been eroded with slopes across their edges, ''or'' because the strata are tilted, and normal surface erosion has removed the upper parts of the higher layers.
