A continental collision trapped oil within what is today Iran. The same collision explains why that oil is trapped behind the Strait of Hormuz now ...
There is an area of reduced gravity under Antarctica — the so-called gravity hole. A new study has shown that it arose due to the slow movements of rocks in the depths of the Earth, which occurred ...
Gravity may seem constant, but it actually varies across the planet—and one of the strangest places is Antarctica, where gravity is slightly weaker than expected. Scientists have traced this “gravity ...
New geological analysis of river sands near Stonehenge has debunked the long-held theory that Ice Age glaciers transported the monument's massive stones. Scientists found no evidence of distant rocks ...

The Great Unconformity Mystery Deepens: New Study Rewrites Earth’s Lost Billion Years
A new study argues that the Great Unconformity, one of geology’s most famous gaps, began far earlier than many researchers had proposed. Drawing on data from ancient rocks in North China, the paper ...
