Abstract:
This DSDP leg was originally conceived by the Antarctic Advisory Panel in order to investigate the geologic histories of the Scotia Arc and of the Argentine Basin. Site 326 (Drake Passage) was drilled in 3812 meters of water about 150 km southeast of Cape Horn. The main objective was to check the magnetic-reversal dating of the opening of Drake Passage by determining basement age. Site 327 is in 2400 meters of water on the western nose of the elevated eastern part of the Falkland Plateau, the Maurice Ewing Bank and was chosen to examine Southern Ocean shallow-water pre-Neogene biostratigraphy. Site 328, in 5103 meters of water in the Malvinas Outer Basin immediately to the east of the Falkland Plateau and to the south of the Falkland Fracture Zone, was chosen to examine correlatives of Argentine Basin acoustic reflectors, to obtain a deep-water southerly biostratigraphic section, and if possible, to date the underlying oceanic basement. Site 330, in 2626 meters of water at the western end of the elongate rise forming the eastern end of the Falkland Plateau, the Maurice Ewing Bank, was selected to elucidate the pre-Aptian history of the Falkland Plateau and to obtain a biostratigraphic section older than that cored at Sites 327 and 329.

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1989 NOAA-NCEI compiled the NOAA-MMS Marine Minerals Geochemical Database from journal articles, technical reports and unpublished sources from other institutions.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