Rethinking Seawater Mo Isotope Mass‐Balance and the Sedimentary Mo Record
Abstract A lingering misconception is that seawater 98Mo/95Mo ratios should have increased more or less linearly with the oxygenation of Earth's oceans. At the root of this hypothesis is the generalization that oxidizing marine sediments have a stronger affinity for lighter‐mass Mo isotopes than their reducing counterparts.

Most studies on the genesis of polymetallic nodules suggested that nodules in the South China Sea (SCS) are hydrogenetic; however, the complexity and the heterogeneity in hydrology and geochemistry of the SCS might cause different processes of nodule ...

Abstract During the Eocene‐Oligocene Transition (ca. 34 Ma), the Earth underwent a dramatic decline in atmospheric CO2, global cooling, a deepening of the carbonate compensation depth (CCD), and the formation of a permanent ice sheet on Antarctica. The expansion of Antarctic glaciers eroded the underlying bedrock and increased the weathering flux to ...

High spatial resolution analysis of ferromanganese concretions by LA-ICP-MS†
A procedure was developed for the determination of element distributions in cross-sections of ferromanganese concretions using laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS).

Cryptomelane formation from nanocrystalline vernadite precursor: a high energy X-ray scattering and transmission electron microscopy perspective on reaction mechanisms [PDF]
International audienceBackground:Vernadite is a nanocrystalline and turbostratic phyllomanganate which is ubiquitous in the environ‑ment. Its layers are built of (MnO6)8− octahedra connected through their edges and frequently contain vacancies and(or ...

A Hf‐Nd isotopic correlation in ferromanganese nodules
The 176Hf/177Hf ratio was measured on 34 ferromanganese nodules, mostly from the Atlantic ocean. The different ocean basins are isotopically distinct with the extreme compositions being less radiogenic in the Atlantic (єHf ∼ +1) than in the Pacific (єHf ∼ +9).

Beyond the plains: deep-sea mining of polymetallic nodules on and around seamounts
Deep-sea mining management, scientific research, and public discourse have largely focused on polymetallic nodule extraction from abyssal plains. However, there is growing commercial interest in nodules on and around seamounts, with exploration and ...

A neutrophilic Fe(II)‐oxidizing Gallionellaceae was isolated from circumneutral Cu mine drainage. It mediated Fe(III) biomineralization, resulting in pronounced Cu accumulation (up to 2 wt%) within the solid precipitates. ABSTRACT Geomicrobiology of copper (Cu) and iron (Fe) in circumneutral‐pH drainage from a Japanese Cu mine was investigated, with a ...
