"Dragon" today (September 3) in
the Pacific Northwest Association of China Ocean crusts mining exploration
contracts Weihai mountainous district implemented the first 69 dives job, which
is the "Dragon", the first pilot applications voyage The third leg of
the first dive, samples taken back to a cobalt-rich crusts. Geology, State
Oceanic Administration, Dr. Tang Limei that two of the samples for the study of
its metallogenic mechanism, as well as with different occurrences of crusts
contrast is important.To learn more please visit: http://www.solarpanelcellonline.com/
Tang Limei said that crusts are widely
distributed in the Western Pacific, mainly in seamounts, ridges and Taiwan
(with a relatively flat, wide top surface of the seabed Heights) slope. About
50,000 Pacific seamounts, which crusts most abundant storage capacity, but
after detailed investigation and sampling of seamounts are few.
She said that the diversity of source
material crusts, generally considered to be adsorbed metal element manganese
mixed colloidal precipitate formed, bacterial activity in this process played
an important role. Crusts usually a few millimeters per million annual growth
rate of formation, and become a thick crust, may require thousands of years
old, is the Earth's most natural process of slow one.
It is understood that crusts contained in
cobalt, manganese, nickel and other metals used in alloys that can increase its
hardness, strength and corrosion resistance and other special properties. In
some industrialized countries, a large number of cobalt is used in the
aerospace industry super alloy production. And high in the chemical industry,
the cobalt can also be used in the production of photovoltaic cells,
solar cell
, fuel cells, superconductors, high-level laser system, a catalyst, a
strong magnetic and cutting tools and other products.
The dives also obtained a six wrist
starfish, four seamount rocks and two sediment samples, photographed corals,
sponges, starfish, sea fish and other marine life information.
Field chief scientist Wang Chunsheng
introduced through the dive, found that the giant sea benthos low abundance
middle of last month, "dragon" probed Wei seamounts, in line with the
characteristics of oligotrophic waters; wrist found in this area six starfish
benthic organisms such giant, giant creatures have further illustrate the
characteristics of wide distribution.
