EARTH'S Dynamic Interior
Heat and Convection Why is Earth's interior so hot?
If you have ever descended into a deep cave or mine, you may have noticed that the temperature increases as you go deeper.
In some gold mines in South Africa, temperatures exceed $60$ at depths of just a few kilometers — far too hot for unprotected human workers.
