Manganese nodules - USGS

The existence of manganese (Mn) nodules (Figure 1) has been known since the late 1800s when they were collected during the Challenger expedition of 1873–1876. However, it was not until after WWII that nodules were further studied in detail for their ability to adsorb metals from seawater. Many of the early studies did not distinguish Mn nodules from Mn crusts.

Manganese Nodule - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

Manganese Nodule. Manganese nodules (also referred to as polymetallic nodules) are spherical precipitates of manganese, iron oxides and other metals (e.g., copper, cobalt, and zinc) that form around a core material, such as a shell fragment or shark's tooth.

MANGANESE NODULE RESOURCES: Nature, Distribution …

Manganese nodules are concretionary bodies that accumulate in situ in a single layer on the surface of the seabottom. This physical configuration of the deposit means that a manganese nodule mine-site will extend great distances in two directions. Based on commonly accepted assumptions, an ocean mine-site could cover an area as small as 30,000 ...

Manganese nodules—the known reserves within Chile are as follows: Robinson Crusoe Island, at 3820 m depth, with a nodule concentration of 4–5 kg/m 2, with a combined Ni + Co + Cu grade of 0.87%. At the mouth of the Rio Loa, 4332 m deep, there are fields with a Cu + Ni content of 1.38% (Site 7 of Table 2 ).

Polymetallic nodules, also called manganese nodules, contain four essential battery metals: cobalt, nickel, copper, and manganese, in a single ore. Formed over millions of years by absorbing metals from seawater, these nodules lie unattached to the abyssal seafloor and are almost entirely composed of usable materials. Unlike land ores, they don ...

Methods and Results: Four nodule-bearing targets were measured by the APXS at the Groken/MA site: Ayton, Falkirk Wheel, Trow, and Groken (Fig. 1). The nodule-bearing material is patchy and occurs in layers a few mm thick that alternate with nodule-poor layers. The darker nodules are in a matrix that appears lighter-toned than the bedrock.

Global Marine Mineral Resources | U.S. Geological Survey

Over millions of years, spheroidal rocks called manganese nodules (or polymetallic nodules) form atop sediment covering the abyssal plains of the global ocean. These nodules form by the accretion of iron and manganese oxides around a tiny nucleus, such as a large grain of sand, a shark tooth, or older nodule fragment.

Manganese nodule occurrence in the Tasman Sea

Abstract Abundant large, discoidal manganese nodules have been recovered at two sites in the Tasman Sea south-east of Sydney. The nodules have todorokite as the main manganese oxide phase, high Mn/Fe ratios (av. 2.5), and moderate concentra-tions of Ni (av. 0.83%) and Cu (av. 0.40%). They therefore have many of the characteristics of nod-

Nodules - The Metals Company

Polymetallic nodules were discovered more than a century ago. In the 1970s, four consortia started to collect the rocks in trials. Tests confirmed that the nodules could be collected and processed to produce usable metals with the technology available at the time, but the activity was paused because there were no regulations or governing body in place to protect the deep …
