“When the first results came in, we realized that we had literally struck gold,” Nils Messling, a geochemist at Göttingen ...

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 ...

A new study in Nature reveals that Earth’s core may not be sealed shut after all. German geochemists have discovered traces of core-derived precious metals like ruthenium in volcanic rocks from Hawaii ...

Earth’s core is apparently a bit leakier than scientists expected. In a new study published in Nature, researchers describe ...

Deep beneath Hawaii’s volcanic islands, a chemical mystery is rising to the surface. Within flows of molten rock, scientists ...

A detailed isotopic study of Hawaiian volcanic rocks reveals signatures of core‑derived material, suggesting the core and ...

Ruthenium isotopes in Hawaiian lava hint Earth’s core is leaking precious metals. This rare find could rewrite planetary ...

Scientists have discovered that Earth's core is leaking gold and other precious metals into the mantle, eventually reaching ...

Researchers from the University of Göttingen discovered traces of precious metals, including ruthenium and gold, rising from ...

Scientists studied volcanic rocks from deep below the lithosphere. These rocks surfaced through magma plumes beneath ocean ...

A groundbreaking study reveals that Earth's core isn't as isolated as once thought. Researchers discovered that valuable ...
