I guess it's a "core sample" from drilling, but the headline made me do a double take. I was first wondering how you get a sample of the Earth's core from the mantle.

Interesting read, thank you!

And the page it is published on seems to be also quite cool. Science based journalism, exactly my thing.

So theconversation.com is now part of my news bookmarks.
