decades of advocacy and struggle. The amendment's

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

you by. And now, back to the show. Let's talk
science. A captivating new study suggests that
human intelligence may have roots in gravitational
waves. First detected in 2015, these waves play
a crucial role in life on Earth. The study highlights
how gravitational waves from binary neutron star
collisions ejected heavy elements essential for
forming Earth's molten core. This process not
only created our planet's magnetosphere, but
also initiated plate tectonics, enabling evolution.
Lead author Bernard Schutz. explains that these
explosions are responsible for the elements that
shape life. As scientists advance detection tools,
they aim to explore the cosmic connections that
lead to our existence. Entertainment news. The
sixth installment in the Karate Kid franchise,
