(Table 1) Contents of tungsten and other metals in Fe-Mn nodules from the Pacific Ocean

Tungsten contents in iron-manganese nodules and crusts from different parts of the World Ocean, as well as its relationships with a number of chemical elements are under consideration. A trend to correlation of tungsten with Fe, Ti, W, Pb, and Co is noticed. Comparison of tungsten contents in the nodules and host sediments indicates its low geochemical mobility.

(Table 2) Geochemistry of ore minerals and magnetization properties at the DSDP Leg 73 Holes

The samples investigated in this study come from DSDP Leg 73 Drill Holes 519A, 522B, and 524, all of which are in the South Atlantic. A general petrographic description of the basalts is given by Carman et al. (1984; doi:10.2973/dsdp.proc.73.120.1984).
