Earth's Core Metals: A Scientific Exploration of Gold, Platinum, and Ruthenium from the Core-Mantle Boundary to Volcanic Islands

Lloyd K. Tate

Discover the groundbreaking insights about Earth's core and its hidden reservoir of precious metals in Earth's Core Metals. This meticulously researched book explores the dynamic interaction between the planet's molten core and its mantle, revealing how gold, platinum, and other valuable elements migrate to the surface over geological timescales. Through advanced isotopic analysis of Hawaiian volcanic rocks, scientists have confirmed the leakage of core material, challenging traditional models of Earth's internal structure. Exploring topics such as core formation, mantle plumes, and the geochemical processes driving volcanic island creation, this book offers a comprehensive look at how Earth's deep interior shapes its surface resources. Earth's Core Metals provides insights into Earth's geological evolution and the future of precious metal exploration. Discover the secrets of Earth's core and its impact on our world's natural treasures.
