  1. lower mantle

    The lower mantle is a region of the Earth's interior between the outer core and the upper mantle, at depths of approximately 670 to 2,890 kilometers. It is primarily composed of silicates and oxides, including silicon, oxygen, magnesium, and iron. This region is characterized by very high pressure and temperatures reaching over 3,000 degrees Celsius, contributing to its plastic, or semi-fluid, state. It plays a crucial role in plate tectonics as the source of magma for volcanic activities, as well as in the Earth’s heat budget.
