A study by researchers at the University of Oxford, University of Leeds, and University College London has identified a new constraint on the chemistry of Earth's core, by showing how it was able to ...

Scientists have long known that Earth's core is mostly made of iron, but the density is not high enough for it to be pure iron, meaning lighter elements exist in the core, as well. In particular, it's ...

Researchers have found evidence that Earth's core is leaking gold and other precious metals, according to a new study. The vast majority (99.9%) of Earth's gold and other precious metals are hidden in ...
