Matthias Willbold

scientist Germany

Professor Matthias Willbold is a prominent geoscientist at Göttingen University, specializing in geochemistry and Earth sciences. His recent research has garnered attention for uncovering significant findings related to the Earth's core and its influence on volcanic activity. Willbold's work suggests that vast volumes of super-heated mantle material, rich in precious metals, are rising from the core-mantle boundary to the Earth's surface, particularly in ocean islands like Hawaii. His insights challenge previous assumptions about the isolation of the Earth's core and contribute to a deeper understanding of our planet's internal dynamics.
