Abstract:
Professor N. Andrussow, of Juriew (Dorpat) sent to the author a series of the deposit-samples collected in the Black Sea during the Russian explorations in 1890 and 1891 in the steamships Tschernomoretz, Zaporojetz, and Donetz. These deposits were submitted to careful microscopical examination and chemical analysis.

Comment:
From 1983 until 1989 NOAA-NCEI compiled the NOAA-MMS Marine Minerals Geochemical Database from journal articles, technical reports and unpublished sources from other institutions. At the time it was the most extended data compilation on ferromanganese deposits world wide. Initially published in a proprietary format incompatible with present day standards it was jointly decided by AWI and NOAA to transcribe this legacy data into PANGAEA. This transfer is augmented by a careful checking of the original sources when available and the encoding of ancillary information (sample description, method of analysis...) not present in the NOAA-MMS database.
