Chemical composition of manganese nodules and a ferromanganese crust using Quantum emission analysis

In the 1960s and 1970s, the Kennecott Corporation conducted a number of activities in the evaluation of manganese nodule deposits as well as in their possible hydrometallurgy

Chemical composition of manganese nodules and ferromanganese crusts using Atomic absorption analysis

In the mid 1970s Kennecott Exploration, Inc. conducted various systematic studies on the chemical composition of manganese nodules and crusts in order to determine the variability of their composition. They ultimately prepared a "normalised" manganese sample numbered GRLD-126 (see: Meylan, Maurice A (2022): Kennecott Standard GRLD-126 manganese nodule replicate Atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS) analyses, https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.948422). The present dataset compiled by NOAA-NCEI is devoted to the extensive analysis of mostly buried in cores manganese deposits recovered by the R/V Robert Conrad and the R/V Vema from the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO). Samples were analysed by the atomic absorption spectrophotometry by Kennecott Exploration, Inc

Chemical analyses of manganese nodule samples from the Atlantis Cruise 266 by the Kennecott Corporation (1966)

Kennecott Copper Corporation became interested in manganese nodules in part based on the publications of Dr. John Mero and work being done at Scripps Institution of Oceanography in the 1960s. Through their subsidiary Bear Creek Mining, Kennecott's first exploration campaign dates back as early as 1962, when 10 tons of nodules were dredged from a site west of Baja California. For the next few years, the group relied on technical associations with oceanographic research campaigns. This in particular the case of the Atlantis Cruise 266, June-July 1961 held by the Woods-Hole Oceanographic Institution over the Blake Plateau area. Samples were analysed using Atomic Absorption Spectrometry
