Here, we review the relationship between the distribution of modern-day seafloor
hydrothermal activity along the global mid-ocean ridge crest and the nature of the mineral …

Non-fuel marine minerals are reviewed from the perspective of resources and their value as
active analogs that can advance understanding of types of ancient ore deposits that formed …

The possibility of mining seafloor massive sulfide deposits has stirred debate about the
sustainable use of this new resource and whether commercial development is worth the risk …

Figure 1. Known sites of hydrothermal venting along mid-ocean ridges, in back-arc basins,
rifted arcs, and at submerged island-arc volcanoes (red), and areas of activity as indicated …

The results of detailed textural, mineral chemical, and petrophysical studies shed new light
on the poorly constrained fluid‐rock reaction pathways during retrograde serpentinization at …

Abstract The ultraslow-spreading Southwest Indian Ridge is a major tectonic province,
representing one of the important end-member mid-ocean-ridge types for its very slow and …

The" magmatic budget hypothesis" proposes that variability in magma supply is the primary
control on the large-scale hydrothermal distribution pattern along oceanic spreading ridges …

In nearly four decades since the discovery of deep-sea vents, one-third of the length of
global oceanic spreading ridges has been surveyed for hydrothermal activity. Active …

Abstract The Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge (AMOR) represents one of the most slow-spreading
ridge systems on Earth. Previous attempts to locate hydrothermal vent fields and unravel the …
