☆ Earth’s core may have been leaking helium for millions of years

They wanted to investigate the rocks that may contain insights about the contents locked within Earth’s core and mantle, the mostly solid layer of Earth’s interior located beneath its surface. Helium inherited from the solar nebula likely became locked in Earth’s core as the planet formed, making the core a reservoir of noble gases. “So, the helium we measured in these rocks would have escaped the core perhaps 100 million years ago or possibly much earlier.”Helium leaking from Earth’s core doesn’t affect our planet or have any negative implications, he said. If so, have fluxes of these elements from the core over (Earth’s) history influenced planetary evolution? I am excited to investigate links between helium and other light elements,” Horton said.

☆ Earth's mysterious core appears to be leaking, leaving scientists baffled

This could suggest the Earth's core is "leaking" helium. The study suggests the Earth's core may be leaking the rare helium, upheaving the belief that the giant ball of molten iron at the center of our planet is sealed away.

AdvertisementAdvertisement"One important question is, assuming helium is leaking out of the core, whether any other elements also escape from the core?
