Abstract:
Data on internal structure, distribution, and chemical composition of iron-manganese nodules from the central part of the South Pacific are reported. Nodules with relatively high contents of Fe, Ti, Co, and Pb were found. Formation of these nodules in pelagic regions of the ocean with low sedimentation rates is tentatively ascribed by the authors to leaching of Fe, Mn, and some minor elements during submarine lava outflow and to geochemical mobility of these elements. The role of diagenetic re-distribution of ore elements during formation of nodules is also discussed.
