Wang and Fei suggest that the violent environment of early Earth would have actually created the circumstances that would turn the mantle into a giant "pour over" coffee apparatus, allowing percolation of liquid metal through an interconnected network. They analyzed the chemical exchanges during this percolation process. Their results would account for iron-loving elements being left behind in the mantle, shedding light on a longstanding geochemistry question.
