Surprise magma pocket found in Iceland hints at more 'ticking time bombs'


1 Jun 2021, 16:03 BST
When engineers began drilling into an Icelandic volcano named Krafla, things took a turn for the weird. The team’s objective was to approach the boundary of a magma reservoir 2.5 miles below the surface, tapping into superheated fluids that could produce geothermal energy. But when the drill was just over a mile down, molten rock began creeping up the drill.
On that brisk spring day in 2009, the engineers had accidentally hit a pocket of magma sitting right below the surface that no one knew was there.
Krafla is “one of the best studied volcanoes on the planet,” says Hugh Tuffen, a volcanologist at Lancaster University in the United Kingdom who wasn’t involved with the research. It has been repeatedly surveyed using a range of techniques, so scientists thought they had a decent grasp of its underground workings. “It’s remarkable that this magma was able to hide.” ....

Krafla volcanic eruption. Scientists, curious as to what sort of magma this was, got their hands on some of this quenched stuff and found that it was not only gloopy, explosive-prone matter, but that it also matched up with magma from the 1724 eruption of Iceland’s Krafla volcano. That means that magma had been down there for three centuries and no geophysical technique had spotted it and in Iceland, home to more volcanologists per thousand people than anywhere else, it should have been spotted. ....

Groundswell of Support Heats Geothermal Innovation
There’s new interest in one of the world’s oldest resources, as governments and investors worldwide look for advanced ways to tap geothermal energy.
Geothermal wells have been producing energy for more than a century, and have been an important part of many countries’ power portfolios for the past several decades. Despite its long history, geothermal has never been among the world’s top electricity sources. That could be changing. The global push toward decarbonization is bringing new investors into the sector, including some oil and gas majors who are betting that geothermal can be a scalable source of clean energy. ....
