The asthenosphere itself is not literally green; rather, this color is often associated with certain minerals found within it. The asthenosphere, a semi-fluid layer of the Earth's mantle, contains silicate minerals rich in iron and magnesium, which can appear greenish due to the presence of minerals like olivine. Additionally, the term "green" may also refer to the geological term "greenstone," which is used for metamorphic rocks that can form in similar environments.
