Abstract

Manganese nodules from the central Pacific contain poorly crystalline todorokite and also small amounts of a post-depositional recrystallization todorokite. The Cu and Ni of the nodules is preferentially concentrated in the latter. Crystalline todorokite on Groote Eylandt does not contain Cu or Ni, providing further evidence that these elements are not necessary to the development of well-crystalline todorokite.
