Earth's core is rich with gold, and it's leaking out through the mantle and into the crust, new research has found. A new study of isotopes found in the volcanic rock that oozed out from deep under ...

Our planet's core is rich in gold that can leak out into the mantle, and in some cases, end up in volcanos on the surface, according to a new study. When you purchase through links on our site, we may ...

Gold and other precious metals are leaking from Earth’s core into the layers above, eventually making their way up to the surface during the formation of volcanic islands like Hawaii, a new study ...

Let’s take a journey into the depths of the Earth, down through the crust and mantle nearly to the core. We’ll use seismic waves to show the way, since they echo through the planet following an ...

Earth cross section showing the classic distinction between crust, mantle and core. But new research shows Earth's structure is far more complicated and may change over time. Analyzing an unusual ...

Eruptions from volcanic arcs, found where tectonic plates converge, are one of the major drivers of natural carbon emissions, ...

The gold and platinum that came from giant space rocks should have sunk into Earth's core instead of rising to the crust. Scientists have now worked out how this happened — and it may explain some ...

Earth's core isn't exactly aligned with its mantle, which results in a cyclical wobble, new research finds. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how ...

The inner core of our planet has started spinning slower and slower, new research has revealed Compared to the speed of the Earth's surface, the inner core was previously thought to rotate faster.
