57Fe Mössbauer spectra of 15 oceanic sediment samples collected from Site 612 (Deep Sea Drilling Project Leg 95) were recorded. These spectra showed that most of the iron in the sediments was present as high-spin, paramagnetic Fe2+ and Fe3+. The ferrous iron was mainly distributed in terrigenous cla...
