Abstract:
Site 12 of this report formerly was designated 14 by the Atlantic Advisory Panel. It was drilled in the Cape Verde Basin (latitude 19° 42'N, longitude 26° 01'W), which is underlain by 2000 to 2100 feet (0.9 to 1.1 seconds reflection time) of sediment. The bottom topography of the basin is fairly smooth but not to the degree of an abyssal plain. Site 12 was selected to provide material for paleontological investigations.

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1989 NOAA-NCEI compiled the NOAA-MMS Marine Minerals Geochemical Database from journal articles, technical reports and unpublished sources from other institutions.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