The Yuhuang-1 hydrothermal field (HF) was discovered recently on the ultraslow-spreading Southwest Indian Ridge (segment 29). This field comprises two main sulfide deposition areas, including the southwest sulfide area (SWS) and the northeast sulfide area (NES), all of which are about 500 m in diame...
