Turns out, the Earth’s core is basically a giant gold vault—and some of that treasure is slowly leaking toward the surface! Scientists just found proof that precious metals like gold, platinum, and ruthenium are making their way up from the core through volcanic rocks (like those in Hawaii). Most of Earth’s gold is still locked deep below, but this discovery changes what we know about our planet’s bling. Imagine: there’s enough gold in the core to cover all land 20 inches thick! #ScienceNews #EarthFacts #GoldRush #Science
