• ABSTRACT In ‘Geomechanical and Geochemical Evidence of Piezonuclear Fission Reactions in the Earth's Crust' [Carpinteri and Manuello, Strain (2011) 47(2), 267], the authors claim that the composition of the Earth's crust and of its atmosphere can be explained by hypothetical piezonuclear reactions. We argue that these claims are contrary to the known experimental evidence of the energy balance of the nuclear reactions involved, and we report a detailed criticism of the claims of the paper.
