US EditionGold and Other Precious Metals Leak From Earth’s Core and Reach the Surface
- Scientists discovered ruthenium in Hawaiian volcanic rocks, suggesting that gold along with other valuable metals could be migrating upward from deep within Earth's core toward the surface.
- This discovery follows analyses showing ruthenium originates from the core-mantle boundary over 1,800 miles beneath the surface, suggesting deep Earth processes drive the metal transport.
- The volcanic eruptions on May 25 produced lava fountains over 1,000 feet high and released toxic sulfur dioxide and volcanic glass, highlighting active mantle dynamics possibly related to this metal leakage.
- Researchers suggest that metals such as ruthenium are migrating upward, with one group indicating that precious metals may be seeping out of Earth's core and entering the overlying mantle layer.
- This evidence suggests ongoing geochemical exchanges between Earth's deep interior and surface, which may affect volcanic activity and the distribution of valuable metals in the crust.
