Abstract
Manganese nodules are found on the ocean floor, most often at depth ranging from 10,000 to 20,000 feet. They are usually three to four inches long, of a brown-black color, and a spherical shape. Although the nodule usually has a nucleus of clay, a little less than one half consists of an assay of manganese, nickel, copper, and cobalt.
