Apr 20, 2019 Iron and manganese exist at nanomolar concentrations in the worlds oceans e.g. Elderfield, 1976 Johnson et al., 1997, despite the high abundances in the Earths crust Taylor and McLennan, 1995. To date, there are still substantial uncertainties on their biogeochemical cycles, including the relative contribution of various external sources.
Feb 20, 2021 The differential kinetics of manganese and iron redox transformations and sedimentary transport processes in this highly dynamic margin generate a conveyor belt that promotes the recycling and downslope transport of manganese relative to iron oxides. Manganese cycling and role in carbon remineralization processes in margin sediments ...
The recognition of Wilson cycle plate subduction in the early Proterozoic and the proposed amalgamation of a Proterozoic supercontinent from 2000 to 1800 Ma offers new insight into the tectonic setting of the large sedimentary basins of this age, which host the vast bulk of the world9s resources of iron and manganese in the very large Superior-type banded iron-formations.
Jan 01, 2005 The manganese mineralization occurs mainly as nodules within the sedimentary section, and both Mn and Fe minerals exhibit colloform textures. Within this terrane we have described a number of banded iron formation deposits that appear to have formed in shallow, restricted basins, which were fed by iron-rich hot springs.

Most of its industrial use is in steel making with a much lesser amount going into the production of batteries. It is very similar to iron in its chemical properties.
Manganese of sedimentary deposits hs been derived from the weathering of Mn-bearing minerals in rocks, former sedimentary concentrations and lode deposits of manganese. Mn makes up about 0.095 of the earths crust, there being 50 times as much iron as manganese. There are over 200 minerals containing manganese as an essential constituent.

Iron and manganese redox cycling in the sediment water interface region in the Kalix River estuary was investigated by using sediment trap data, pore-water and solid-phase sediment data. Nondetrital phases presumably reactive Fe and Mn oxides form substantial fractions of the total settling flux of Fe and Mn 51 of Fetotal and 84 of Mntotal. A steady-state box model reveals that ...
May 20, 2019 These deposits include but are not restricted to, sedimentary ores of iron and manganese, sedimentary-exhalative massive sulphide deposits, metalliferous black shales, coal, placers and laterites. Improved understanding of the origin of sedimentary ore deposits through time, not only plays a key role in terms of exploration for new resources ...
The southeastern Bering Sea is known for high levels of primary productivity, which is iron-limited in off-shore waters. The sedimentary reduction of iron and manganese oxides can be significant pathways of organic matter oxidation in marine sediments, and may influence patterns of primary production in surface waters. The goal of this research was to investigate patterns of Fe and Mn ...

May 06, 2021 Here, we assess the dynamics of iron Fe, manganese Mn, and phosphorus P in sediments of the eutrophic, brackish Gulf of Finland populated by cable bacteria. At sites where bottom waters are oxic in spring, surface enrichments of Fe and Mn oxides and high abundances of cable bacteria were observed in sediments upon sampling in early summer.
Seafloor nodules are a special type of sedimentary manganese deposit that represent a large unmined resource of manganese, iron, copper, nickel and cobalt. They are abundant in sediment-starved areas of the deep ocean basins, mainly in the Pacific Ocean. They occur in irregular, single-layer fields at or within a metre of the sediment-water ...
Mar 02, 2021 Groundwater quality is presently vulnerable to contaminants from natural and human activities .Among many contaminants, iron Fe and manganese Mn are present in chemicals derived from both natural sources, such as soil and rock, and human activities, such as industrial wastewater and the overexploitation of groundwater, and can eventually pollute groundwater 1,2,3,4.
Iron and manganese mix collected from the Lecht Iron Mines of Tomintoul, Aberdeenshire. This mineral mix is a dark brown to black colour but often exhibits a rusty orange hue as a result of the oxidation of iron. The specimens are rough and jagged but exhibit an occasional botryoidal crystal habit.

Given the widespread of iron and manganese reducing bacteria in nature and large volume of biomineralization they are able to produce, biologically induced magnetic minerals may be an important contributor to the NRM of sedimentary rocks.
