The Gutenberg Discontinuity, is the boundary, as detected by changes in seismic waves, between the Earth's lower mantle and the outer core about 1800 miles below the surface. It is also called the core-mantle boundary.
That's the boundary between two layers deep inside Earth.
between the mantle and core
About 1,800 mi below Earth's surface.
An Unconformity is where there is a discontinuity in the column of material, with a different style of material taking over after the discontinuity. The place where gravels and silts abut solid rock would be a simple example of an unconformity. A Hiatus is merely where the same type of material exists on both sides of the discontinuity. The column of material continues, but there is a time slice missing.

The printing press and movable type. It was invented by Gutenberg and allowed books to be printed instead of hand written. This allowed knowledge to flow more freely and to a wider audience.
The printing press, invented in 1439 by Johannes Gutenberg, aided in the spreading of ideas quickly and easily. Bibles were revised and printed, scholars published their works, and scientists spread about new ideas for the public to see and be educated with.
Johann Gutenberg's main accomplishment was being the inventor of the mechanical-type printing press during the Middle Ages. With this invention, the mass production of books was possible. Prior to the printing press, the reproduction of books or manuscripts was through handwritten methods. He was born in 1395 and died in 1468.
Beno Gutenberg discovered the Gutenberg Discontinuity.

The Gutenberg discontinuity is actually found at the base of the mantle, not the lithosphere.
The Gutenberg discontinuity was discovered by a German geophysicist named Beno Gutenberg in 1913.Gutenberg find out that it is the boundary that seperates the two layers.The gutenberg layer is 1500 km thick.
The Gutenberg discontinuity is found directly above the outer core.
Mohorovicic discontinuity is located between the upper mantle and the crust, while the Gutenberg discontinuityis located between the lower mantle and the outer core.
The Gutenberg Discontinuity is found above the earth layer called the outer core. This boundary line, which separates the outer core from the lower mantle, is approximately 1798 miles below the Earth's surface.

They mark the boundaries of differing layers of the Earth. The Moho marks the boundary between the crust and the mantle, whereas the Gutenberg discontinuity marks the boundary between the mantle and outer core.
