Manganese Nodule Deep-sea Mining 3 Group [17099] 51 grams

These three excellent manganese nodules are from the Clarion-Clipperton fracture zone, the Pacific Ocean floor, and deep-sea mining. They show most of the polymetallic nodules' dynamic shapes and attributes and total 51 grams. Manganese nodules are the most widespread undersea mineral resource for mining strategic elements, composed mainly of manganese minerals and a mixed assortment of other elements.

These three nodules from deep-sea mining are an interesting group showing variety.

Sizes: 38mm L X 33mm W X 22mm D, weight: 15.4 grams

          43mm L X 31mm W X 25mm D, weight: 21.3 grams

          35mm L X 25mm W X 23mm D, weight: 14.3 grams

Rare metals and essential elements have been found in manganese nodules discovered on various ocean floor systems. The following elements are present: manganese, iron, silicon, aluminum, nickel, copper, cobalt, oxygen, hydrogen, barium, potassium, titanium, sodium, and traces of a few other elements. The estimated age of these nodules is approximately 2.5 million years old.

Our manganese nodules were obtained in a scientific materials trade with a major university.

These polymetallic nodules ship with a Certificate of Authenticity, tag, tag stand, and information about the specimen. The acrylic bases and photo cube are not included. These nodules are shipped in a protective case.

A professional XRF elemental assay metallurgical laboratory printout analysis is included with this order. The XRF analysis is consistent with other manganese nodules from the Clarion-Clipperton fracture zone.

Here is an opportunity to improve your scientific collection with one of the greatest geological wonders. Now you can include mining the ocean floor!
