Annotated record of the detailed examination of Mn deposits
Beginning in 1983 the USGS searched major oceanographic institution dredge archives for samples and data relevant to the USGS Woods-Hole Ferromanganese Crust Data Base. With the... -
Ferromanganese crusts and nodules chemical analyses from the USGS Reston anal...
Based on comparative studies on the utility of ICP, atomic absorption, and other techniques for the elemental analysis of geological samples the authors decided to pursue a... -
Occurrence of Globorotalia cavernula in the water column and sediments: globa...
Here, we present a global compilation of previously reported sightings of the rare planktic foraminifer Globorotalia cavernula Bé, 1967 as well as new observations of... -
Compilation of 230Th-normalized opal burial and opal concentrations from Sout...
This dataset consists of a compilation from the literature of Holocene opal burial rates from the Southern Ocean calculated using the 230Th-normalization method. Also included... -

Chemical composition of manganese nodules from the Southern Ocean
Samples have been air dried and reduced to powder. The analysis is done on the whole content and not on the sole HCL soluble part as in most analyses from other authors.From... -
Mercury contents of selected marine manganese nodules
Manganese nodules were selected from various areas of the Pacific, Indian and Atlantic ocean. They were analysed using a mercury vapour discharge technique. The minimum... -
Chemical composition of the internal layers of manganese deposits from the So...
The chemical composition of layered deposit inside zones has been determined for ferromanganese nodules and crusts retrieved in the South Pacific Ocean during various R/V... -
Thorium isotopes measurements inside internal layers of manganese deposits fr...
The ratio of 230 Thorium excess over 232 Thorium isotopes has been determined for different layered deposit zones inside ferromanganese nodules and crusts retrieved in the South... -
