Periclase deforms more slowly than bridgmanite under mantle conditions

Transport of heat from the interior of the Earth drives convection in the mantle, which involves the deformation of solid rocks over billions of years. The lower mantle of the Earth is mostly composed of iron-bearing bridgmanite MgSiO(3) and approximately 25% volume periclase MgO (also with some iro...
