Davemaoite is a vehicle for radioactive isotopes that help to heat the planet’s mantle.
The surprising find has never shown up in nature before and reveals secrets about the earth’s mantle.
The newfound mineral, dubbed davemaoite, only exists deep in Earth’s mantle.
Vincent Uhl of Uhl and Associates, based in Lambertville, N.J., will moderate a webinar of international hydrogeologists and water management officials focused on the Nile River Basin.
Scientists have discovered the world's deepest earthquake, which occurred 467 miles (751 kilometers) beneath the surface of the Earth.
An earthquake that struck at a whopping 751 kilometers (467 miles) below the Earth’s surface is the deepest ever recorded, scientists have revealed.
An earthquake that struck at a whopping 751 kilometers (467 miles) below the Earth’s surface is the deepest ever recorded, scientists have revealed. The tremor shook a zone thought to be impossible for quakes to occur in.
This depth places the earthquake in the lower mantle where seismologists thought it would be impossible to cause an earthquake.
In Japan, 751 kilometers deep. But experts can't explain exactly how this was possible.
The quake occurred in the lower mantle, well deeper than previous quakes.
In the dusty circumstellar disk, evidence for the existence of a planet revolving around three stars at once has been discovered for the first time.
It all started when Jeremy Smallwood's team, from the University of Nevada in Las Vegas (UNLV), in the United States, analyzed the three dust rings observed around the three stars of a solar system called GW Orionis (GW Ori), located about 1,300 light-years from Earth.
