Australian minitektites discovered in the Indian Ocean
(Meteoritical Society, Fayetteville, USA, 1999)
Large area sampling with a box core in the Indian Ocean has led to the discovery of minitektites (> 1-3.75 mm long) and a tektite fragment (approx 1.25 mm) occuring with microtektites belonging to the Australasian tektite ...
Impact microcraters on an Australasian microtektite
(Meteoritical Society, Fayetteville, USA, 1996)
Microcraters attributable to impact have been discovered on an Australasian microtektite from a core in the Central Indian Basin. The craters resemble lunar microcraters and those generated during impact experiments. The ...
Coexistence of pumice and manganese nodule fields-evidence for submarine silicic volcanism in the Central Indian Basin
(Pergamon, 1993)
Pumice, of various shapes and sizes, uncoated or coatEd. by ferromanganese oxides, have been recovered from deeper parts of the Central Indian Basin (CIB). The pumice field covers an area of 600,000 km sup(2), approximately ...
A new report on the occurrence of zeolitites in the abyssal depths of the Central Indian Basin
(Society for Sedimentary Geology, 1993)
Forty-two indurated slabs of zeolites collected from the abyssal depths of the Central Indian Basin have been studied. The slabs show characters similar to harmotome-rich scorias of the Society Ridge and phillipsite slabs ...
Manganese nodule distribution in different topographic domains of the central Indian Basin
(Taylor and Francis, 1993)
Manganese nodule distribution is primarily influencEd. by seafloor topography. Nodule distribution at 479 locations vis-a-vis seabed topography is studiEd. by superimposing sampling location on the topographic profile and ...
Australasian microtektites from the Central Indian Basin: Implications for ejecta distribution patterns
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1996)
Microtektites belonging to the Australasian tektite strewn field have been recovered in one (SK-16/176) out of three cores examined from the Central Indian Basin. The microtektites have been identified based on their ...
