Composition of Fe-Mn nodules and crusts from the Cape Basin

Listed in PANGAEA

Facies zonation of the Cape basin with respect to Fe-Mn nodules based on data from Cruise 43 of R/V Akademik Kurchatov and published data is presented.

Description

Three facies regions are distinguished: the southern end of the Walvis Ridge and seamounts, the continental slope of the Southwest Africa and the deep-water Cape Basin. Iron-manganese nodules in the first of these areas are predominantly sedimentary, those in the second area are diagenetic and those in the third are sedimentary-diagenetic.

Chemical characteristics and type of metallogenic specialization for each of the regions are identified.
