Scientists have uncovered a new explanation for what powers Yellowstone and other supervolcanoes. Instead of a deep plume rising from near Earth’s core, a broad “mantle wind” may push hot rock beneath ...

Most of the earthquakes we hear about are due to tectonic plates colliding or sliding past each other near plate boundaries.

A slow, eastward-moving current of hot rock deep within Earth may be the primary force feeding Yellowstone’s volcanic system, according to a study published in Science on April 9, 2026. Researchers at ...

While seafloor spreading and subduction explain much of the volcanic activity in Earth’s oceans, magmatism occurring within tectonic plate interiors requires a deeper mantle explanation. Various types ...

The majority of light rare earth element (LREE) resources are derived from carbonatite-associated deposits at cratonic margins. However, the origin of ore-forming carbonatite magmas remains unclear.
