(Table 1, page 126) Concentration of elements in Fe and Mn rich pisoliths (nodules) from Lake Storsjoen, South Norway

A detailed description of the ores of Lake Storsjoen was given by Vogt J. H. L., 1915 who pointed out that the ores may be divided into two principal types; first, iron ore with 2% or less of manganese (ex: Ertemalm), and, second, ores with manganese contents of up to 30% (ex: Korinter). The iron-rich ore sometimes occurs as a conglomerate embedded in manganese-rich ores, clearly demonstrating that two distinctly different precipitates are involved. In the iron-rich ore, a concentric structure is common of which light brown layers of loose, almost dusty material alternate with hard and brittle black layers, the thickness of each being 0.5 mm or less. The analyses presented in this paper seem to demonstrate that the composition of the sedimentary ores of Lake Storsjden could result from fluctuations in the composition of ground waters feeding the lake.

Investigation of Manganese rich river pebbles from Poland and Austria

The author is studying various manganese coated river pebbles which had been given to him for evaluating their chemical properties. Samples were provided for the confluence of the Vistula and the Dunajec river in Poland by Mr. W. Petraschek. Other samples had been acquired earlier from Pr. A. Fraunhofer in the river bed of the Enns river near the town of Ernsthofen in Austria.
