geothermal starts at the outer edge of the earth's crust and gets hotter the deeper you go. The gradual increase in the temperature as the depth increases is called the geothermal gradient. As you proceed through the crust the gradient is gradual. When you break through the upper mantle the temps then rise almost exponentially.
