After reading this article, I was reminded of [0]. The Earth's core is hot due to the presence of radioactive isotopes, both the uranium-238 and thorium-232 series occur in substantial quantities. This could alter the chemical composition of the water present due to radiolysis. Anyone up for a hydrogen peroxide cocktail?
