Exploring the Earth's Mantle ... The earth is divided into four main layers: the inner core, outer core, mantle, and crust. The core is composed mostly of iron (Fe) and is so hot that the outer core is molten, with about 10% sulphur (S). The inner core is under such extreme pressure that it remains solid.

The layer above the core is the mantle. It begins about 6 miles(10 km) below the oceanic crust and about 19 miles (30 km) below the continental crust (see The Crust). The function of the mantle is to separate the inner mantle and the outer mantle.

The mantle, which contains more iron, magnesium, and calcium than the crust, is hotter and denser because temperature and pressure inside the Earth increase with depth. As a comparison, the mantle might be thought of as the white of a boiled egg.

This animation shows how the hot silicate rock of the Earth's mantle is stirred by heat trying to escape. The heat is generated by the radioactive decay of natural elements like uranium. The hot rock (yellow) rises slowly as the denser cold rock (blue) sinks.
