The Hajar mountains in the United Arab Emirates, which reach approximately 2,000 metres above sea level, were produced by volcanic activity 70 million years ago. These mountains were still partially submerged by the sea, as shown by sedimentary rock strata, particularly limestone. Many of the species that previously roamed the United Arab Emirates territory have been extinct. That is why the Dubai tour package for Fossil Rock in Sharjah is so significant.

In addition to the geological phenomena of Fossil Rock, Mleiha has significant archaeological sites from the Palaeolithic, Neolithic, Bronze, Iron, pre-Islamic, Islamic, and contemporary eras.
