Abstract:
Using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) the authors have examined the microtexture of Mn nodules. Previous researches using SEM observation on marine Mn nodules have revealed many characteristic features which may relate to their formation. They report the discovery of in situ calcareous nannoplankton fossils in a Mn nodule collected during the RV Hakuho-Maru Cruise KH-74-4, and present a preliminary calculation of the growth rate, using a biostratigraphic method. They also discuss the potential value of Mn nodule biostratigraphy in terms of deep sea palaeoenvironments.

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1989 NOAA-NCEI compiled the NOAA-MMS Marine Minerals Geochemical Database from journal articles, technical reports and unpublished sources from other institutions.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