    How do THEY know this..?.the deepest hole was only 7 miles deep.I want to see a ROCK MELT NOT VOLCANOS LAVA ROCKS!!

      They know this by Geophysical methods, in this case we use Sismology, for example sismic waves behave different according to the medium in which they are travelling, thats why we know the outer core is liquid, but the inner is solid, and actually thanks to this, the sismic waves reflect and scientifics were able to calculate or estimate the distance to the core

      @@Mike_Greene They are not guessing: in seismology there are two main types of waves: P-waves and S-waves and the latter simply is not able to move through liquids and that's why scientists "think" the outer core is liquid. If you don't understand that or you think it's still "guessing" I would advise you to take some physics courses.

    Never heard of "heat transfer melting". Do you mean anatexis? The term started out meaning just sediment melting, but its use has broadened to encompass continental rocks more generally.

    You can't melt rock there is no lava underground, as you dig it gets cooler not hotter and eventually hit water that's how people dig wells everybody not dumb!

      When we are studying the EARTH we have to stop thinking in HUMAN measures, it is impossible for HUMANS to dig even 50km (50000m), all these studies have to be performed with Geophysical methods such as Sismology, Gravimetric analysis and others. Thats why we are not able to evidence with our eyes the heat coming out of the center of the earth. The wells you are talking about are found in less than 0.1km (100m), in which the temperature difference with the crust is practicaly changeless.

      ​@@estebancalderon1084 So why does heat come from the ground and caves so cold? the lava makes it to surface HOT (2k degrees although ppl are able to stand a foot away without burning their boots or sweating in the middle of lava. Ever stand next to a fireplace? The op makes sense, you, non sense. but you gonna believe it because you dont have one of them thigs and will never have one and depending on (NOT SCIENTISTS, but) govt to tell you. although you know the govt lies. Make it make sense

    Thanks, I think I got it.
    So even if the melting of a particular rock is say 1600°, it takes high pressure and an even higher temp (because of the pressure) to make it fluid,
    As it decompresses it gets hotter and we get lava.
    The lava, just like metal, oxidises just like a metal would when it hits the atmosphere??

    Really interesting, but I can't imagine how rock just go up in solid state without loosing temperature, my brain brakes at that point.

    OMG, things make so much sense now. This whole time I was thinking that the mantle was just in a constant state of liquid. Also would explain why continental subduction doesn't cause more volcanoes than it does.

      I wonder if we can create rock 'alloys', just like we do with metal.

      ​@@markusgarvey Well, a rock is an "alloy", but not like a metal alloy.
      Remember that all the metals come from rocks. In very few cases single metals are present in rocks (gold and iron for example), in some other cases alloys are present in rocks (like electrum silver-gold alloy), but most of the time metals are present in rocks as minerals, which are metals together with some other atom(s). Your question is like: can we create water like in the human body. That is an extremely ill-posed question.
