A review of the todorokite-buserite problem; implications to the mineralogy of marine manganese nodules

Roger G. Burns, Virginia Mee Burns, and Harlan W. Stockman

Mass. Inst. Technol., Dep. Earth and Planet. Sci., Cambridge, MA, United States

Crystal chemistry of todorokite structure-types. Three types of atomic substitution occur in the tunnel structures: first, substitution of Mn (super 2+) by other divalent cations (e.g., Mg 2 , Ni (super 2+) , Cu (super 2+) , Zn (super 2+) ) in the "walls" formed by chains of edge-shared [MnO 6 ] octahedra, characteristically three octahedra wide; second, replacement of Mn (super 4+) by similar sized cations (e.g., low-spin Co (super 3+) in the "ceilings" or "floors" typically three, but as many as seven or more, [MnO 6 ] octahedra wide; and third, in the tunnel interiors adjacent to Mn (super 4+) vacancies in the "ceilings." Recommendation that the name todorokite be universally adopted for the predominant manganese oxide mineral accommodating divalent cations of nickel and copper in marine manganiferous concretions.--Modified journal abstract.
