The area around Dundee is mainly underlain by sandstones, siltstones and mudstones of Devonian age. To the north-west, in the Sidlaw Hills, and to the south-east, along the southern shore of the Firth of Tay, volcanic rocks of similar age crop out. Small outcrops of intrusive igneous rocks occur under Dundee itself and between Dundee and the Sidlaw Hills.
