Abstract:
Prior to arrival on this site, the only survey data available was from the Vema-20 crossing of the area. The recommended site location was over a relatively smooth valley in the bottom topography at about 4750 meters (15,580 feet) depth (uncorrected), about 10 kilometers wide E-W between peaks (or ridges) on either side. Sediment thickness was unknown. The center of the valley is near the peak of a wide (40 to 50 kilometers) positive magnetic anomaly, identified as Magnetic Anomaly 30 in the hypothesized geomagnetic time scale with an age of 72 million years.

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1989 NOAA-NCEI compiled the NOAA-MMS Marine Minerals Geochemical Database from journal articles, technical reports and unpublished sources from other institutions.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