Minor element geochemistry of Lake Michigan ferromanganese nodules [PDF]
Abstract Samples of ferromanganese nodules from several localities in Lake Michigan have been analyzed for their minor element content utilizing neutron activation techniques. The thorium and uranium levels in Lake Michigan nodules exhibit marked dissimilarities with marine nodules.

On the discovery of ferromanganese nodules in the World Ocean
Abstract For a century, the discovery of ferromanganese (Fe–Mn) nodules in the World Ocean was universally and indisputably credited to the Challenger circum-global oceanographic expedition of 1872–1876, during which the first manganese nodules and crusts were dredged up from the sea floor in February–March 1873.
