Rare Earth Elements in Manganese Nodules from the Central Pacific Ocean
Abstract Manganese nodules in areas CP and CC of the central Pacific are rich in REE. Comparatively speaking, the REE contents of nodules in area CP are hihger than those in area CC; and the REE contents of nodules from seamounts are higher than those of nodules from sea‐floor plains and hills.
