Deep Earth pulses beneath Africa are tearing the continent apart

The vertical movement of the mantle is one of the driving forces that brings about large-scale geological changes to the surface of our planet. These mantle upwellings, sometimes referred to as mantle plumes, are hypothesized to play a role in some major geological shifts such as continental drifting. A similar, subtle yet significant phenomenon has been found to be currently taking place beneath the African continent.Continue ReadingCategory: S…

How Ancient Fire Shaped the Earth: New Evidence Reveals a Two-Stage Birth of Continental Crust

A newly published study in Science Advances has dramatically reshaped the story of Earth’s earliest continents, identifying a two-stage geodynamic process that may have forged some of the oldest continental crust on the planet. The research focuses on the Eastern Block of the North China Craton, home to rocks formed over 2.5 billion years ago, […] The post How Ancient Fire Shaped the Earth: New Evidence Reveals a Two-Stage Birth of Continental C…
