In the Quran mountains have roots. Skeptics claim that whoever wrote the Quran made a mistake; mountains have no roots. Today geologists confirm that mountains have roots.
The highest point on Earth is in the Himalayas at Mount Everest 8.8 km high. It turned out that this mountain has roots about 250 km deep.
The larger Asian plate forced the Indian plate deep into the mantle - a process called subduction - sinking it at least 155 miles (250 kilometers) down under the surface, a new study in the May edition of the journal Geology suggests. This plunge is double the depth of previous estimates.
