Abstract:
Manganese nodules from the Suiko Seamount exhibit the significant characteristics in mineral compositions. Well crystallized todorokite and birnessite, which are principal manganese mineral phase in nodules, only occur in the oxide layer directly incasing pebbles and coarse sand. The preferential formation of todorokite or birnessite phases seem to be principally controlled by the reaction rate of iron-manganese oxides with trace elements such as Cu, Ni, Co, Zn, Pb concentrated in nodules, rather than redox characteristics of sedimentary environment or mineralogical diagenetic process.

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1989 NOAA-NCEI compiled the NOAA-MMS Marine Minerals Geochemical Database from journal articles, technical reports and unpublished sources from other institutions.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.
