Ecological and Economic Prerequisites for the Extraction of Solid Minerals from the Bottom of the Arctic Seas

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2017
The world ocean has huge reserves of minerals that are contained directly in the water, as well as on the surface of its bottom and in its subsoils. The deposits of solid minerals on the surface of the bottom of the World Ocean are considered the most ...

Linkages between the Genesis and Resource Potential of Ferromanganese Deposits in the Atlantic, Pacific, and Arctic Oceans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In addition to iron and manganese, deep sea ferromanganese deposits, including nodules and crusts, contain significant amounts of economically interesting metals, such as cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), and rare Earth elements and yttrium (REY ...

The Search for Supernova-produced Radionuclides in Terrestrial Deep-sea Archives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
An enhanced concentration of 60Fe was found in a deep ocean's crust in 2004 in a layer corresponding to an age of ~2 Myr. The confirmation of this signal in terrestrial archives as supernova-induced and detection of other supernova-produced radionuclides

Hydrocarbon-derived ferromanganese nodules in carbonate-mud mounds from the Gulf of Cadiz: Mud-breccia sediments and clasts as nucleation sites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
More than 500 F e - M n nodules were sampled during the Anastasya-01 cruise (TASYO project) along the continental margin of the Gulf of Cadiz (eastern Central Atlantic), at the confluence of the Mediterranean Sea with the Atlantic Ocean, where ...

Minor element geochemistry of Lake Michigan ferromanganese nodules [PDF]

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Science Letters, 1970
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.

Reconstruction of the Paleo‐Ocean Environment Using Mineralogical and Geochemical Analyses of Mixed‐Type Ferromanganese Nodules From the Tabletop of Western Pacific Magellan Seamount

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
Variations in the geochemistry and mineralogical compositions of ferromanganese (Fe‐Mn) nodules are closely related to variations in environmental parameters. Therefore, analysis of Fe‐Mn nodules can reconstruct the paleo‐ocean environment.

Paragenetic relationship between ferromanganese and calcareous nodules in a hydromorphic toposequence

open access: yesGeoderma
Although both ferromanganese and calcareous nodules are common in hydromorphic soils, their joint presence has rarely been evaluated. Studying their occurrence in soils forming toposequences may significantly contribute to a better understanding of their
