12 to 28 miles down? Aren’t they simply looking at the mantle? Is it surprising to find semi-molten rock in the upper mantle?

It’s a little bit more shallow than that. It’s clearly part of the Yellowstone plume.

This is obviously due to Gorebull warming. Oh, and it is Bush's fault.

Earth crust is between 20 and 30 miles typically. I would say this is a narrow area of the crust or could easily say it’s part of the plume that is connected to the mantel.
