Abstract:
On cruises 10 and 15 of Academic Kurchatov (1971, 1973) at the Jan-Mayen Ridge, a large number of samples was obtained. Most of them contained sedimentary rocks. From their study, it is safe to assume that the rocks of the Jan-Mayen Ridge were, at first, subjected to subsidence to a considerable depth, and then uplifted to their contemporary position, by the ascending tectonic movements. Thus, the Jan-Mayen Ridge is in contrast to other Atlantic submarine ridges, not only in the sedimentary rock composition, but in the character of the tectonic movements.

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1989 NOAA-NCEI compiled the NOAA-MMS Marine Minerals Geochemical Database from journal articles, technical reports and unpublished sources from other institutions.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