      Sigh. Googling used to be fun for me. But now I tend to get annoyed. Answers seem to contradict each other. I’ll leave this here - https://www.google.com/search?q=why+does+mercury+have+a+huge+core

          I don’t know if astronomy.com is a good site plus it’s an old article: “November 26, 2012”.
