• 5:26
  Earth's core is literally leaking gold. While
• 5:30
  most of the planet's precious metals lie hundreds
• 5:33
  of miles beneath the surface, Scientists have
• 5:36
  discovered a particular isotope of ruthenium
• 5:39
  in volcanic rock samples. This indicates that
• 5:43
  precious metals are oozing from the core into
• 5:46
  the mantle, which comprises 84 % of Earth's volume.
• 5:51
  Researchers developed new procedures to detect
• 5:54
  microscopic markers, confirming that material
• 5:57
  from the core is rising to the surface. This
• 6:00
  research supports geological theories about oceanic
• 6:04
  islands and opens up a new perspective on Earth's
• 6:07
  inner dynamics. In business news, major automakers
• 6:14
  are urgently seeking solutions to China's control
• 6:17
  over rare earth magnets, which could threaten
• 6:20
  their production lines. With fears of imminent
• 6:23
  shutdowns, companies are exploring options like
• 6:26
  relocating parts manufacturing to China. or shipping
• 6:29
  motors there for magnet installation. China recently
• 6:33
  mandated export permits for these critical materials,
• 6:37
  which are essential for electric vehicle motors
• 6:39
  and other automotive functions. Automakers are
• 6:43
  also looking for alternative sources in Europe
• 6:46
  and Asia, but these may not meet current demand.
• 6:49
  Without immediate action, production delays and
• 6:52
  shutdowns could become a reality for the industry.

  now, back to the show. Let's talk science. A

  captivating new study suggests that human intelligence
• 8:08
  may have roots in gravitational waves. First
• 8:12
  detected in 2015, these waves play a crucial
• 8:15
  role in life on Earth. The study highlights how
• 8:19
  gravitational waves from binary neutron star
• 8:22
  collisions ejected heavy elements essential for
• 8:25
  forming Earth's molten core. This process not
• 8:29
  only created our planet's magnetosphere, but
• 8:32
  also initiated plate tectonics, enabling evolution.
• 8:36
  Lead author Bernard Schutz explains that these
• 8:39
  explosions are responsible for the elements that
• 8:42
  shaped life. As scientists advance detection
• 8:45
  tools, they aim to explore the cosmic connections
