Ru and W isotope systematics in ocean island basalts reveals core leakage

Nature, Published online: 21 May 2025; doi:10.1038/s41586-025-09003-0Ru isotopes are proposed as tracers for core–mantle interaction on Earth, and anomalies for ocean island basalts from Hawaii are reported that have higher ε100Ru than the ambient mantle.
