According to field investigations of the geology of the western United States coupled with the authors' long-term studies on granites in South China, granites both in eastern China and in the western United States are similar.展开更多

It is suggested that REE concentrations in oxic interstitial water are lower than that in bottom weter,REE contents of polymetallic nodules, except Ce, are similar to that of sediments. Bottom water, sediments and interstitial water are almost the same in REE distribution patterns. MREE enrichment relative to LREE and HREE and negative Ce anomalies, MREE earichment has been found in polymetallic nodules,and Ce shows positive anomalies. REE contents in sediments increase with depth, and the vacations of distribution patterns with depth have not been found.展开更多
