Results of study of bottom sediments near Iceland and on the Jan Mayen Island are reported. It was found that in recent sediments chemical elements are mainly associated with pyro- and volcanoclastics. In some areas adjusted to deep-seated faults ancient iron-manganese crusts and sediments occur. They are rich in Ni, Co, V, Cu, Mo, Cd and other elements associated with endogenic matter. ... : Supplement to: Emelyanov, Emelyan M; Blazhchishin, A I; Kharin, Gennady S (1976): On the role of endogenic sources in formation of chemical composition of bottom sediments from the North Atlantic.
