Scientists had previously discovered that water is stored within Earth’s ‘mantle rock’ region in a sponge-like state that is neither liquid, solid nor gas, but a fourth state instead.

Scientists: Huge oceans of fresh water under the Earth’s crust
Geologists say they believe there is a vast ocean of fresh water hidden beneath the Earth’s crust.
A recent research study indicates that there is a huge supply of water located 400 miles underground stored in a rock known as Ringwoodite.
Scientists from Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois, said a reservoir of water three times the size of all Earth’s oceans has been discovered deep within the planet’s surface.

It is worth noting that this discovery can help explain the origin of water on Earth, and specifically, it may help us determine the source of the seas and oceans and may help us better understand life on our planet.

Scientists had previously discovered that water is stored within the “mantle rock” region – which is one of the layers of the globe – in a sponge-like state, which is not liquid, solid or gaseous, but a fourth state instead, and a study was published in 2014 regarding That strange physical state of water.
Results after seismic study
Scientists reached those results at the time after studying earthquakes and discovering that seismographs were picking up shock waves below the surface of the earth. Later they were able to prove that water was trapped in the rock known as Ringwoodite.
The study indicated that the high water storage capacity in the Earth’s mantle (which has a thickness of 410 to 660 km) indicates the possibility of a huge reservoir of water, according to what was published by the “Futuresm” website.

Geophysicist Steve Jacobsen, one of the study’s co-authors, said: “Ringwoodite rocks are like a sponge, as they absorb water greatly due to the crystal structure of Ringwoodite, which allows it to attract hydrogen and trap water inside it.”
“This type of rock could contain a lot of water in the deep mantle,” Jacobsen, who was part of the team behind the discovery, added. “I think we are finally seeing evidence of the entire Earth’s water cycle, which may help explain the existence of That huge amount of liquid water on the surface of our planet… Scientists have been searching for this missing deep water for decades.”
Ice formed
Some scientists argue that Earth’s water probably came from asteroids or comets, which is the most prominent theory currently, as it indicates that the solar system at the beginning of its formation was very hostile to water of any kind, especially with the sun sending at the time huge amounts of intense ultraviolet radiation, which It can break down water molecules by removing hydrogen from the water molecule, according to NDTV.
@MEWA_KSA How does groundwater renew in Saudi Arabia and cool the earth’s crust? It is by entering fresh water in the valleys of its hollow hollows, and making the same in dams for the speed of storing it underground instead of evaporating it, to compensate for the shortage in the stock and make the wells sparkling as before. pic.twitter.com/mIGr5h8VCF

This led scientists to believe that the ice may have formed farther out in the solar system, and that bodies carrying it (comets or asteroids) later collided with a colder Earth over millions of years, first concentrating in the Earth’s interior, getting trapped in rocks in the mantle and then gradually being released. to the surface due to the movement of tectonic plates to form seas and oceans, according to geophysicist Steve Jacobsen, who was one of the scientists responsible for the discovery.
Water covers about 71% of the surface of the planet, and according to the recent study, if the rock contains only 1% of the water on the surface of the earth, this means that the volume of water held in these rocks within the mantle layer is 3 times the volume of water in the oceans due to the size These rocks are massive in the heart of the Earth.
