Abstract:
The results at Site 59 suggested that Mesozoic sediments are present beneath a thin Tertiary cover in the region north of the Caroline Ridge near the Mariana Trench. Since one of the principal objectives of the drilling program was to find old Pacific crust, and since the section at Site 59 was not fully penetrated, it seemed worth a determined effort to go beyond the level reached at Site 59, somewhere in the same general area, in an attempt to reach basement. As the reflection profile taken by Argo (SCAN Leg V) through Site 59 shows the section above thesmooth basement reflector (Horizon B?) thinning northwestward from about 0.3 to 0.15 second, by loss of part of the lower "transparent" layer, this is were Site 61 was located.

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1989 NOAA-NCEI compiled the NOAA-MMS Marine Minerals Geochemical Database from journal articles, technical reports and unpublished sources from other institutions.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