(A) Iron oxide concretions (several cm in diameter) in cross-bedded host rock at Snow Canyon, southwestern Utah. Nodule formation is superimposed on eolian laminae and has periodic banding (insert).
INTRODUCTION. Fe-oxide concretions in the Jurassic Navajo Sandstone of southern Utah, USA have been studied as analogs of hematite spherules (known as blueberries) found by NASA's Opportunity rover in Meridiani Planum on Mars (Fig. 1) (1–11).A debate lasting nearly two decades has produced several models for the origin of the Fe-oxide concretions …
Context: 7 poly-metallic nodules, 3 lime mud blocks identified for first offshore mineral auctions. What are Polymetallic Nodules (PMN)? Polymetallic nodules, also called manganese nodules, are rock concretions formed of concentric layers of iron and manganese hydroxides around a core.; Deep-ocean polymetallic nodules form on or just below the vast, …

Although quantifications of Pb +2 contents in iron oxide concretions are scant, it is known that ferromanganese minerals weakly scavenge Pb +2 from solution (Nowlan 1976), and Pb +2 concentrations ...
Nodules typically occur in hydromorphic soils of humid temperate climates. Compared with concretions, nodules do not occur commonly in soils. Sherman and Kanehiro (1954) and Folster (1968) reported that iron nodules were characterised by accumulation of Fe-oxides that form coherent or indurated bodies or horizons within the solum.

march 1, 2020 what are lake iron nodules? • an iron-enriched concretion, often containing more than 30 percent iron by weight. there are both oxic and anoxic forms. oxic iron nodules form at the sediment/water interface (swi). they are commonly composed of the minerals goethite and hematite. anoxic iron nodules form in anoxic sediment pore-space.
3. INTRODUCTION :- Manganese and iron oxide mineral deposits formed on or just below the sediment-covered surface of the deep-ocean seabed by accretion (precipitation) of oxide layers around a nucleus, which contain …

For hydric mineral soils, look for nodules & concretions, pore linings around cracks, gleying, or gray mottles. For hydric organic soils, look for dark greyish brown accumulations on the surface, strong brown iron concentrations further down. ... Reduced soil matrix changes color due to unleached iron being exposed to air, the iron oxide gains ...
instead, the iron oxide is concentrated in a very strongly cemented, sharply defined, exterior rind or shell. In the smaller concretions, the entire interior lacks iron-oxide cement, and is similar to the rock outside the concretion; in the larger concretions, there is a cen-tral zone that is strongly cemented by iron oxide, but the sandstone

Iron oxide concretions on both Mars and Earth are valuable records of diagenetic, postdepositional changes in sedimentary units because they preserve evidence of ancient …
Fe-rich concretions commonly occur in Greek soils with alternating drying and waterlogging periods. This study was conducted to characterize the iron oxides in Fe-rich concretions from the upper ...
Iron-oxide concretions – curious-looking dark spheres – can be found by the hundreds of thousands in the dramatic red and white outcrops of Navajo Sandstone in the Southwestern United States. The quartz sands composing …
1976)(priweb, 1976). There are different types of concretions based on the mineral that creates them. For example, iron-oxide concretions are formed from precipitation in iron rich soils. These concretions are often mistaken for meteorites (Korotev, n.d.). Practically speaking, concretions are just rocks.
Concretion: Forms by precipitation of material around a nucleation surface. ex, Iron Oxide concretion Nodules: similar to concretion just lacks nucleation surfaces and concentric structures that concretions exhibit. ex, Chert nodules in limestones

The formation of hydraulically isolated compartments along hard-linked strike-slip faults promotes: (1) the development of Liesegang bands in a reaction zone dominated by pore-water molecular diffusion of O 2 into Fe 2+-rich stagnant water, and (2) the precipitation of iron-oxide impregnations and concretions in the fault-core–mixed zone ...
