Further Considerations on the Deposition of the Middle Cambrian Manganese Carbonate Beds of Wales and Newfoundland

Abstract The succession of individual coloured bands in two manganese ore specimens has been analysed for eight trace elements, and has revealed some long-term chemical variations of possible regional extent throughout the period of ore deposition. Previous work on the distribution of elements betwe...
