Earth’s Mantle Could Be Harbouring Ocean of Magma Formed Billions of Years Ago, Claims Study
The study conducted by Boukaré and published on March 26 in the Journal Nature suggests that this molten layer at the core-mantle boundary of the Earth formed the internal thermal structure of the planet and tectonic plates. This may still influence the geochemical process of the Earth today. Further, it suggests a similar magma ocean existence on...

Synthetic Hexagonal Diamond Surpasses Natural Diamonds in Hardness and Stability
Scientists have successfully created a synthetic diamond with a hexagonal lattice, making it harder than natural diamonds. Developed using a process involving high-pressure heating of graphene, this diamond withstands up to 155 GPa and 1,100 degree Celsius, far exceeding the durability of natural diamonds. While unsuitable for jewellery, it holds p...
