Deep beneath Earth's surface, some minerals hold clues to processes that happened millions of years ago. One such mineral is lawsonite, which forms under high pressure and relatively low temperatures. What makes it significant is its ability to store water within its crystal structure and carry it deep into Earth as tectonic plates move beneath one another.
