Abstract:
The sedimentary section at Site 62 on Eauripik Ridge can be traced eastward into the East Caroline Basin. It was decided to drill a hole to basement in the eastern part of East Caroline Basin to determine the age of the upper strong reflectors and to test the hypothesis that sediments older than any at Site 62 are present. A nearly complete section was obtained from middle Oligocene to Quaternary, unconformably overlying basalt containing middle Oligocene chalk xenoliths. The sediments consist of chalk and chalk ooze in the Oligocene and Miocene, and of marl ooze and calcareous clay in the Pliocene and Quaternary.

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1989 NOAA-NCEI compiled the NOAA-MMS Marine Minerals Geochemical Database from journal articles, technical reports and unpublished sources from other institutions.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