Where would you drill if you wanted to drill from the ground surface into the mantle, but with the shortest length of drill to reduce your cost?

Dick knows that it is possible to reach his preliminary goal of 1.5 kilometres, because he has done it before. In 1997, he led an expedition to Atlantis Bank that got that deep before disaster struck: the pipe snapped off in high winds, corkscrewed down inside the hole and plugged it up.

In the Living Room or the Dining Room. I have a mantle in both.

Follow up question, how do we know the composition of the lower crust and upper mantle when we haven't drilled that far ever before?
I have never cooled pies (with their attendant crusts) on my mantle. If I ever would, I would not want to drill through the crust and the pie pan into the mantle.

Deepest part of the ocean or the arctic?

Because of the understanding of tectonic movement and that our core center cannot be sedimentary rock, therefore the beginnings of igneous?

I study sediments, not hard rock.

The Dead Sea is the lowest place on the Earth's surface.

Probably some ocean trench that was also wide enough to get equipment into.
