In this episode of Subliminal Universe, John and Susan discuss a groundbreaking discovery in the diamond exploration industry. Recent research from the University of Southampton suggests that the breakup of tectonic plates plays a crucial role in the eruption of diamond-rich magmas from the Earth's depths. The connection between tectonic forces and diamond eruptions is explored, with evidence showing a cyclical pattern that mirrors the assembly and breakup of supercontinents. The process of tectonic breakup disrupting the continental root and triggering the formation of kimberlite magma is explained, supported by simulations conducted by Dr. Sascha Brune. The implications of this research go beyond diamond exploration, as it may have profound effects on the Earth's mantle, surface environment, and climate. By understanding the patterns and timing of these eruptions, future diamond exploration efforts could be more targeted and successful. Stay tuned for more exciting discoveries on Subliminal Universe!
