Deep earthquakes could reveal secrets of the Earth’s mantle

The molecular structure of ice-VII (upper right) is shown with an artistic rendering of the Earth and a cutaway view of the inner Earth (right). Crystallized water, in the form of ice-VII, was found in diamond samples studied at Berkeley Lab.

Basalt, the most-common rock on Earth’s surface, encases green crystals--a geologic "nesting doll" phenomenon called a xenolith. Basalts such as this one derive from a section of the mantle that has been depleted in incompatible trace elements, which is usually attributed to continental crust formation. In their work, Tucker and his collaborators propose another mechanism that would impart this signature. Credit: Carnegie Institution for Science
