As long as it's not found in the crust of someone's underwear!

IT'S crawling with life down there. A remote expedition to the deepest layer of the Earth's oceanic crust has revealed a new ecosystem living over a kilometre beneath our feet. It is the first time that life has been found in the crust's deepest layer, and an analysis of the new biosphere suggests life could exist lower still.
See The Deep, Hot Biosphere by Thomas Gold or his 1992 PNAS paper with the same title.

Life is found in deepest layer of Earth's crust I'm having a bit of a problem with the statement of that headline (and as it is explained in the article).
The thickness of Earth's crust is 30-50 km in the continental regions and still 5-10 km beneath the oceans. So how does 1 km end up being "the deepest layer"? It's barely scratching the surface! Heck, most mines go down a lot deeper than that.

...had evolved to feed off hydrocarbons like methane and benzene...On Saturn's moon Titan they discovered something is reducing Acetylene on the surface. It could be life.
