A volcano or a meteorite? New evidence sheds light on puzzling discovery in Greenland's ice sheet

Recent research has revealed that a puzzling platinum signature found beneath Greenland's ice sheet likely comes from a volcanic fissure eruption in Iceland rather than a meteorite impact. This discovery is significant as it not only clarifies the origin of this unusual platinum presence but also enhances our understanding of geological processes in the region, potentially impacting climate studies and our knowledge of volcanic activity.
