A microprobe study of metalliferous sediment components

Creator:: Eklund, William Alan
Abstract:: Examination of polished sections of manganese micronodules from metalliferous sediments from the Bauer Deep reveals sequences of ferromanganese deposition which are consistent for micronodules from a single sediment sample and imply a common depositional history for members of such assemblages. The relatively simple 'stratigraphy' of manganese micronodules, as compared to...
