Discover the lost “Resurrection” plate hidden under the Pacific Ocean!
Scientists have reconstructed a long-lost tectonic plate that may have given rise to an arc of volcanoes in the Pacific 60 million years ago.
The plate, dubbed the Resurrection, has long been a controversial among geophysicists, with some believing it never existed. But the new reconstruction places the edge of the rocky plate along a line of known ancient volcanoes, indicating that it was once part of the crust (the upper layer of Earth), in what is today northern Canada.
