Marine mineral resources of the Central Indian Basin: Ferromanganese nodules and crusts
(Gulf Pub., Houston, USA, 1996)
The morphology, mineralogy and composition of ferromanganese nodules and crusts from the Central Indian Basin and southwestern flank of the Charlsberg Ridge have been characterized from the analyses of data and samples ...
Relationship between size and geochemistry of polymetallic nodules from the Central Indian Ocean Basin: Significance in selection of high grade nodules
(Publ. and Inf. Dir., New Delhi, India, 1994)
Morphological, mineralogical and geochemical studies on nodules of different sizes collected from the Central Indian Ocean Basin (CIOB) show two suits of nodule formation by oxic diagenetic and hydrogenous process resulting ...
Evidence for recent hydrothermal activity in the Central Indian Basin
(Pergamon, 1997)
This study documents the first actual prof of recent intraplate volcanic-hydrothermal activity in the Central Indian Basin (CIB). Twenty-six surface sediments and a spade core (37 cm long) from the CIB were examined for ...
Sedimentological and clay mineral studies in Kakinada Bay, east coast of India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1996)
The sediments of Kakinada Bay are predominantly silty clays, with a phi mean range between 2.9 to 7.8 northern, central and southern parts of the bay consist of finer sediments (5.5 to 7.05 phi) while the eastern and western ...
Rare earth element distribution and behaviour in buried manganese nodules from the Central Indian Basin
(Elsevier, 1993)
Eight burried manganese nodules taken in the upper metre of a siliceous ooze sediment core in the Central Indian Basin at 14 degrees S and 74 degrees E were analysed for major, trace and rare earth (REE) elements. ...
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 ...
Evolution of the basalts from three back-arc basins of southwest Pacific
(Springer, 1999)
Petrography, petrochemistry, and mineral chemistry of basalts from the Woodlark, Manus, and Lau basins from the southwest Pacific have been studied to understand their magmatic evolution. Basalt from the western Woodlark ...
Geochemistry of calcareous sediments from the SW Carlsberg Ridge: Evidence for deeper carbonate compensation depth
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1995)
Concentration of Mn, Fe, Ni, Co, Zn, Ca, Mg, K, Al, Si, Ti, P and CaCO sub(3) show wide range for the calcareous sediments from SW Carlsberg Ridge (CR). Compared with the average pelagic clays, the CR sediments are enriched ...
Geochemistry of calcareous sediments from the SW Carlsberg Ridge: Evidence for deeper carbonate compensation depth
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1995)
Concentration of Mn, Fe, Ni, Co, Zn, Ca, Mg, K, Al, Si, Ti, P and CaCO sub(3) show wide range for the calcareous sediments from SW Carlsberg Ridge (CR). Compared with the average pelagic clays, the CR sediments are enriched ...
Alteration of basaltic glasses from the Central Indian Ocean
(Geological Society of India, 1999)
Textural, mineralogical and compositional characteristics of basaltic glasses from the Central Indian Ocean show them to be altered to varying extents through their interaction with the seawater, resulting in the formation ...
