Remnant of the late Permian superplume that generated the Siberian Traps inferred from geomagnetic data
Discovering ancient mantle plumes is challenging. By combining electrical conductivity with mineral physics modelling, this work finds a remnant of an ancient plume trapped in the mantle transition zone and sheds new light on mantle plume physics.
