The Indian Ocean Nodule Field: Geology and Resource Potential, Second Edition, provides a view of the most recent studies along with classical theories starting from the 1960s. New concepts, hypotheses and critical appreciation of the state-of-the-art knowledge on nodule formation and resource management are featured in this new edition. The economy of the Indian Ocean has vast potential and yet it is one of the least studied oceans. Garnering economic advantage out of mineral resources from deep oceans has been a long cherished dream for the mining community. The availability of 5-metal rich polymetallic (manganese) nodules in specific areas of the Indian Ocean has lured researchers to discover more about their processes of formation, growth, distribution and enrichment.
The book includes a synthesis of research findings on the structure
and evolution of the Central Indian Ocean Basin and its
ferromanganese deposits, in particular, on the exploration campaign
since 1980s. A comprehensive mixture of recent studies along with
classical theories starting from the 1960s is the hallmark of the
book. Recent concepts and hypotheses, and also critical
appreciation of the state-of-the-art knowledge on nodule formation
and resource management are incorporated.
